Carmel, California | Engagement | Sara + Gabe

Nestled along the picturesque coastline of California, Carmel-by-the-Sea is a charming village that exudes romance at every turn. With its quaint streets, stunning beaches, and lush landscapes, Carmel serves as an idyllic backdrop for capturing the essence of love. This is magical place speaks to Sara and Gabe, so naturally it they chose to have their engagement session done here. Even their dog Barron joined along! Below are some of my favorite photos from their engagement session in Carmel.

In their words.

  • Going into our session, how were you feeling? Excited, hopeful, and nervous.
  • Going into our session, what were your expectations? I expected to be pretty nervous but also excited to find out what the plan was and hear about the ideas you had for us.
  • What three words would you choose to describe your experience with me? Prepared, helpful, and experienced!
  • Now that we’re done, what do you wish you knew about our session ahead of time? Would you have changed anything? Would not have changed a thing! We really enjoyed meeting ahead of time and getting to know you and talking through some of the ideas and visions you had for the shoot!
  • What feedback do you have for me? How could I have done better? We really appreciate how calm and comfortable you made us feel. Neither of us had been in front of a camera like that before and you really made it easy for us to relax and be ourselves!
  • What was your favorite part of your experience? We loved how much you included Berrin and how generous you were with your time and our session even allowing it to go over time a bit! The extra touches like bringing our favorite snacks and drinks was extremely thoughtful.

Thank you! If you want photography like this, please inquire to see if your date is available.
