Jeanine and Joe are an aviation-loving couple whose engagement session was shot as a 1950s throwback, complete with suspenders, red lipstick, and a vintage airplane. Acromatico, a family-run photography and brand studio working across South Florida and New York City since 2004, photographed the session.
Jeanine and Joe are airplane lovers, so their engagement session was built around exactly that: a vintage aircraft as the centerpiece, styled as a throwback to the 1950s with suspenders and red lipstick. Tracking down the airplane wasn't easy, but it happened thanks to Joe's persistence.
The result is a retro aviation engagement session with real period styling. Acromatico, a family-run photography and brand studio founded in 2004 and working across South Florida and New York City, photographed the day and shared a set of favorite frames from the shoot.
“Getting this bad boy wasn't easy but thanks to Joe's persistence it happened.”
Good to know
Aviation-themed engagement sessions like Jeanine and Joe's depend on access to an aircraft, which is the hardest part to arrange. In South Florida, couples often pursue this kind of shoot at general-aviation and historic airfields, vintage-aircraft hangars, and aviation museums rather than commercial airports, since those venues are more open to photography and to posing near a parked plane. Securing the aircraft early, as Joe did here, is what makes the concept possible.
Acromatico is a family-run photography and brand studio that has worked since 2004 across South Florida and New York City, with a dark fine-art "Brand Studio" aesthetic. For a styled, concept-driven engagement session, lining up wardrobe (here, 1950s suspenders and red lipstick) and the location well ahead of the shoot date is the single biggest factor in pulling off the look.
