Lladeris and Joseito celebrated their engagement with a romantic, vintage-inspired session at Hugh Taylor Birch State Park in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, photographed by Acromatico. The couple, who are dear friends of the studio, marked their engagement in this Fort Lauderdale state park near the Atlantic coast.
This engagement session was a special one for Acromatico: Lladeris and Joseito are dear friends of the studio, and they chose to celebrate their engagement with a very romantic, vintage-inspired session at Hugh Taylor Birch State Park in Fort Lauderdale. Despite the heat and the mosquitoes that day, the couple rocked their session with their looks.
Acromatico is a family-run photography and brand studio, founded in 2004 and working across South Florida and New York City with a dark, fine-art aesthetic. Photographing close friends like Lladeris and Joseito on their engagement day is exactly the kind of personal work the studio is built around.
“Despite the heat and the crazy mosquitoes, these guys rocked their sesh with their looks.”
Good to know
Hugh Taylor Birch State Park is a Florida state park in Fort Lauderdale, set on a barrier island between the Intracoastal Waterway and the Atlantic Ocean along the coastal stretch near Fort Lauderdale Beach. Its maritime hammock, freshwater lagoon, and tree-lined trails give couples a green, sheltered setting that feels tucked away from the surrounding city, which is part of why it works well for a vintage-inspired engagement session.
Because it is a working state park, an entrance fee applies at the gate, and photographers and couples planning portrait sessions should check current Florida State Parks rules on permits for professional photography before booking a date. As Lladeris and Joseito's session showed, South Florida heat and mosquitoes are real considerations here, so morning or late-afternoon light and a little bug spray go a long way for an outdoor session in this park.
