I met Allison and Ron in Central Park for their engagement session. Spring blossoms were just beginning to appear and we had a beautiful day!
Allison shares, “Ronald and I met in July of 2008 through college. We both attended John Jay Criminal Justice. Ronald was going for Police Academy Training for about a week and I just so happened to be in the classroom next door. Ronald built up the courage to speak to me and eventually we exchanged numbers and since then have become inseparable. I was swept off my feet with Ronald’s kindness, honesty, strong character, and wonderful sense of humor. I never thought in a million years I would meet such a loving person. Whenever I am feeling down Ronald is there to make me smile no matter the situation–that is one of the main reasons I knew I could spend the rest of my life with him.
Ronald shares, “On April 24, 2013 it was Allison’s 24th birthday and she had to work. Allison woke up and got ready for her day. I acted as if it was a regular day, but little did she know I had a surprise for her. After Allison finished working I asked her if she wanted to go out and eat some cake. Knowing that Magnolia Bakery is her favorite, I ordered a small German Chocolate cake. In the car, on our way to Magnolia I said to Allison ” Sooooo what do you think if I let you pick out your own engagement ring?” Allison’s face looked so confused. She said, ” Oh I would love to!” but for some odd reason she didn’t realize I was parking in front of Zale’s Jewelry Store. Once Allison got out the car she started jumping up and down and couldn’t believe she was getting engaged! She left the jewelry store happy as ever, and yes, she still got her cake!”
Allison and Ron will be married this spring in New York. Happy engagement you guys!
