Monastery Beach Engagement Session in Carmel

We’re excited to share a beautiful Monastery Beach engagement session we recently featured on our main site: https://montereyphotography.art/monastery-beach-carmel-engagement-session

Monastery Beach in Carmel is one of the most dramatic coastal backdrops along the Monterey Peninsula. With its cliffs, golden sand, and the sound of the Pacific Ocean, it creates the perfect setting for couples who want engagement photos that feel authentic and cinematic.

For this session, the couple brought their pit bull, adding personality and heart to the portraits. Including pets in an engagement shoot makes the gallery feel deeply personal, and this Monastery Beach session showed just how much joy a four-legged friend can bring. From playful candids along the shoreline to full-body portraits against the rocky outcroppings, every image reflected their connection and the beauty of the Carmel coast.
