Liz & Nathan’s Engagement Session at Coxhall Gardens in Carmel

Liz & Nathan’s session at Coxhall Gardens is a perfect example of how the right location and a relaxed, documentary approach can create engagement photos that feel authentic and timeless. As a Carmel engagement photographer, I love this space for its balance of open scenery and architectural backdrops, giving couples variety without needing multiple locations. Sessions here flow naturally — allowing candid movement, genuine connection, and storytelling moments that reflect your relationship rather than stiff posing.
