Asbury Park Boardwalk Engagement Session

Krystal and EJ picked a gorgeous day for their Asbury Park Boardwalk Engagement Session! I love the casual, relaxed feel of their session because I think it provided a perfect way to spend an afternoon during a very busy time in their lives! Not only are these two preparing for a long-distance relationship while EJ attends medical school, but they are also planning a destination wedding in South Carolina. Luckily, these two have been doing great with the planning. It was so great to hear about all the wedding day details that are coming together for their May wedding. We started out their session on the Asbury Park Boardwalk with a few photos with their doggies. Their little fur babies were adorable and so cooperative! I have to thank EJ’s sister and her husband for assisting that day because having someone to help with doggies during an engagement session is key! After a few photos on the boardwalk, we headed onto the beach and over to the old casino before ending our session with some images incorporating EJ’s Dodge Dart. It was so sweet of Krystal to make sure we had enough time to get these photos because she knew they would be special to EJ. I have to say it was the perfect way to get EJ excited about the session =) Congratulations, Krystal and EJ! May these next few months fly by for you!!“Asbury “NJ “NJ

How they met:

“We met while working in the emergency room at Monmouth Medical Center. I am a registered nurse. EJ was a patient care technician. EJ was the first to welcome me to night shift back in December 2011. It wasn’t until late Spring when we started to talk to each other more at work and became friends more than just coworkers.” “NJ “NJ

Their first date:

“For our first date in June 2012, EJ picked me up in his Classic Dodge Dart. It was a beautiful day out so we went to Asbury Park and played mini-golf on the boardwalk. After playing 18 holes, I won but EJ claims he let me win. Afterwards, we went to Johnny Mac’s House of Spirits where we shared funny stories and opened up about ourselves to each other.”

When they knew:

“For me, it wasn’t a single moment but long line of little and big things over the past 3 years that added up to something extraordinary. Last year, we bought our townhouse and lived through a complete renovation. EJ is my best friend and my greatest adventure. EJ claims that he knew since the first day that I was stuck with him.”

The proposal:

“We went to Aruba for 5 days after I graduated with my Master’s degree in Nursing. The second day we were there, EJ woke me up after sunrise wanting to go on a walk on the beach. I gave him a hard time because I wanted to sleep in and we were going to be on the beach all day. EJ wouldn’t let it go, so I got ready and off we went. We were one of the few people out that early morning. While walking on the beach and enjoying the view, EJ was telling me how beautiful I looked along with the many reasons he loves me. Before I knew it, he was down on one knee, holding a gorgeous ring, asking me to marry him. After I asked EJ if he asked my parents for their blessing, I said yes!”

“One thing we love about each other is how supportive and understanding we are to one another. I was able to complete my Master’s degree for Family Nurse Practitioner this year. EJ completed his Master’s degree in Biomedical Sciences and now is a medical student at St. George’s University in Grenada.”

Besides being married, one thing they are looking forward to:

“Other than celebrating the best day ever with our friends and family, the one thing I am looking forward to on my wedding day is seeing EJ’s face and his reaction when he sees me for the first time in my wedding dress.”
