H & M are an engaged couple who traveled all the way from China to Bill Baggs Cape Florida State Park on Key Biscayne, Florida, for an engagement session photographed by Acromatico, a family-run South Florida and New York City studio. The bride-to-be wore a wedding dress to test out the park's beaches.
H & M came down to Acromatico from China for their engagement session, and the afternoon at Bill Baggs Cape Florida State Park did not disappoint. The bride-to-be wanted to test out the waters of the park's beaches in a wedding dress, and she looked stunning doing it.
The session also came with an unexpected cast of locals: the couple got photobombed by raccoons and encountered them hand to hand, literally. These are a few of the studio's favorite shots from that afternoon with H & M. Congratulations again on the engagement.
“This bride to be wanted to test out the waters of our beautiful beaches wearing a wedding dress, she looked stunning.”
Good to know
Bill Baggs Cape Florida State Park sits at the southern tip of Key Biscayne, a barrier island just south of Miami connected to the mainland by the Rickenbacker Causeway. The park covers the cape's beaches, dune trails, and pine and coastal hammock, making it one of the more secluded stretches of sand in the Miami area and a natural fit for beachfront portrait and engagement sessions.
The park is best known for the historic Cape Florida Lighthouse and its long Atlantic-facing shoreline. As a Florida state park it charges a per-vehicle entrance fee and keeps set daily hours, so couples should confirm gate times before scheduling. The wide, open beach and tree-lined paths give a range of backdrops within a short walk, and resident wildlife — including the raccoons that turned up during H & M's session — is part of the experience. Mornings and late afternoons offer the softest light along the water.
