Patricia and Alex are an engaged Miami couple — he's a firefighter, she works with children — photographed by Acromatico at the Gold Coast Railroad Museum in Miami, Florida, ahead of their upcoming wedding. The vintage rail cars set the stage for their engagement session.
Patricia and Alex booked an engagement session with Acromatico at the Gold Coast Railroad Museum in Miami, Florida, with their wedding still ahead of them at the time. Alex is a firefighter and Patricia works with children. Their love story began when Alex first approached Patricia, who played hard to get even though she was struck by him from the moment she saw him — and by the scar that, in their telling, sealed the deal. They have been together ever since, and they describe themselves as fun people who love spending time with their friends.
They were looking forward to a relaxed, chill wedding day to come. This engagement session was photographed by Alessandro, an associate photographer at Acromatico, among the museum's historic locomotives and rail cars.
“They have one of the most unique love-stories we've ever heard: the scar that scored his wife.”
Good to know
The Gold Coast Railroad Museum sits at 12450 SW 152nd Street in the Richmond Heights area of southwest Miami-Dade County, Florida, next to Zoo Miami. It is a railroad heritage museum built around historic locomotives, rail cars, and rolling stock, which makes its tracks, vintage train exteriors, and platforms a distinctive backdrop for an engagement session compared with the beaches and gardens more common across South Florida.
For couples planning a session here, the location is on the southwestern edge of the metro area, an easy pairing with a Zoo Miami visit and a drive from neighborhoods like Kendall, Pinecrest, and Coral Gables. The rail cars and open outdoor areas give a photographer room for both close, character-driven portraits and wider environmental frames.
