I love an engagement session with minimal props, just a couple in love. It’s even more special when a bride and groom to be is photographed being just themselves, doing what they enjoy. Melissa and John met at a teachers night in Long Beach and hit it off immediately! They  love traveling together and being in the outdoors. And my favorite part?? John owns a garden plot in Long Beach, which served as the perfect spot to take their engagement pictures! Dave Richards Photography captured it all perfectly! Makes me want my own herb plot too. So Inspired!
