Engagement Session at Gravelly Beach on the Central Coast
Rosheen and Anthony’s engagement session at Gravelly Beach was quiet, understated and effortlessly beautiful. The kind of session where nothing feels rushed and the surroundings do most of the work.
Gravelly Beach is one of those lesser known Central Coast locations that feels calm the moment you arrive. With its mix of sand, rocks and open water, it has a relaxed, almost untouched feel that is perfect for couples who want something low key and natural. There were no crowds, no distractions, just space to slow down and enjoy the moment together.
We spent the session moving gently along the shoreline, using the rocks and natural textures as simple backdrops. Rosheen and Anthony were completely at ease, which made everything flow easily. Lots of walking, quiet conversation and those in between moments that always end up being the most meaningful.
As the sun dropped lower, the light softened and the beach took on a warm glow. Sunset at Gravelly Beach is subtle rather than dramatic, and that softness suited the session perfectly. The rocks caught the last light, the water stayed calm, and the whole evening felt peaceful and unforced.
Rather than focusing on posed shots, the session was about connection. Standing close, holding hands, sharing a laugh and just being present together. The result was a set of engagement photos that feel timeless, relaxed and very true to Rosheen and Anthony.
