Bertha and Fredly are two musicians who connected and chose this occasion to celebrate marriage together. Their day began with images made inside the Fort Lauderdale courthouse, located in Broward County, Florida, where the staff greeted and received the couple quickly and warmly. The ceremony was intimate, with their closest friends and family on hand to celebrate.
Afterward, the couple headed out for romantic, spontaneous portraits, with a few friendly photobombs along the way and a playful jumping-in-the-air shot. Acromatico looked forward to continuing the work together through future family sessions and music events.

Good to know
The Broward County Courthouse sits in downtown Fort Lauderdale, the seat of Broward County in South Florida, near the New River and the city's central government district. Courthouse weddings here are well suited to couples who want an intimate, low-key civil ceremony with only their closest people present, rather than a large-venue event.
Because courthouse ceremonies are typically short and the surrounding downtown is walkable, there's usually time right after the ceremony to step outside for portraits. Fort Lauderdale's downtown streets, waterfront along the New River, and nearby green spaces give a courthouse couple varied backdrops within a few minutes of the building, which is how Bertha and Fredly moved from their ceremony straight into relaxed, spontaneous photos.
