Andrea and Randy had their engagement session photographed by Acromatico at Matheson Hammock Park on Old Cutler Road in Miami, Florida — early one morning, in the very same place where Randy had proposed to Andrea. A small tornado even passed through during the shoot.
Acromatico photographed Andrea and Randy's engagement session at Matheson Hammock Park, on Old Cutler Road in Miami, Florida. The shoot began very early in the morning, when the sky over the park looked amazing. What made the session especially meaningful is that Randy proposed to Andrea in this very same place, so returning here for their engagement photos brought the couple back to where their story took a turn.
The morning also delivered a surprise: a small tornado passed through during the session. Despite the weather, it was a session the studio thoroughly enjoyed shooting alongside the couple.
“What made this session even more special is the fact that Randy proposed to Andrea in this very same place.”
Good to know
Matheson Hammock Park is a Miami-Dade County park located along Old Cutler Road in the Coral Gables / Coconut Grove area of Miami, Florida, bordering Biscayne Bay. It is one of the oldest parks in the county and is known for its man-made atoll pool, coastal hammock, mangroves, and marina. Its early-morning light off the bay and its mix of open water and dense tropical foliage make it a natural setting for engagement and portrait photography.
Couples planning a session here should note that the park's seaside location means weather and light shift quickly — as Andrea and Randy's morning showed. Arriving early takes advantage of softer light and quieter grounds before the park fills. Acromatico is a family-run photography and brand studio working across South Florida and New York City, so a Miami park session like this one sits squarely within the studio's home region.
