Avi&#8217;s Engagement Portraits in Williamsburg, Brooklyn"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>When Becky initially contacted me I was so excited because she and Avi were planning to be married at a venue downtown that I&#8217;ve *longed* to shoot in for years now, but never had the chance.\u00a0 <a href=\"http:\/\/www.orensanzevents.com\/index.html\" target=\"_blank\">Angel Orensanz <\/a>is an event space housed in the oldest surviving synogague structure in NYC.\u00a0 It&#8217;s sanctuary was designed to resemble the Sistine Chapel, and the rest of the interior is influenced by the Cathedral of Notre Dame.\u00a0 This uniquely beautiful space is now a famous arts center and nonprofit&#8211; it embodies so many of the things I love about New York City itself, and it&#8217;s potential as a wedding venue is unmatched in my opinion.\u00a0 Amazingly this couple was referred to me by my favorite wedding band of all time,<a href=\"http:\/\/www.dexterlakeclubband.com\/\" target=\"_blank\"> The Dexter Lake Club Band<\/a>&#8212; who will be playing for them!\u00a0 So when I heard that Becky and Avi would be working with a floral designer whose work I absolutely adore, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.rshepherdfloraldesign.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Rebecca Shepherd<\/a>, I felt like this wedding was a dream come true and it was just meant for me&#8211; you can imagine my delight when they chose me to be their photographer&#8211; it&#8217;s basically my ideal wedding!\u00a0 Of course as luck would have it then Angel Orensanz had some sort of building failure that has forced them to shut down temporarily and fix a part of their structure before reopening&#8230; luckily they&#8217;re expected to be back in business a few months before Becky &amp; Avi&#8217;s wedding and this amazing couple has rolled with the punches and is making backup plans as possible just in case.\u00a0 Now that I&#8217;ve had a chance to shoot their engagement portraits around their neighborhood in Brooklyn I couldn&#8217;t be more confident that stars have aligned here&#8211; this couple is so fun and cool and their wedding is most definitely gonna rule so check back in November (fingers crossed) to see those pictures too!<\/p>\n<p><img class=\"pp-lightbox-placeholder pp-gallery-placeholder lightbox-1402680197 mceItem\" id=\"pp-lightbox-1402680197\" style=\"display: none;\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sarahtewphotography.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/p4\/placeholders\/lightbox-placeholder-1402680197.jpg\" \/><br \/>\n<iframe src=\"\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/98157335?title=0&amp;byline=0&amp;portrait=0&amp;color=ffffff\" height=\"506\" width=\"900\" allowfullscreen=\"\" frameborder=\"0\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When Becky initially contacted me I was so excited because she and Avi were planning to be married at a venue downtown that I&#8217;ve *longed* to shoot in for years now, but never had the chance.\u00a0 Angel Orensanz is an event space housed in the oldest surviving synogague structure in NYC.\u00a0 It&#8217;s sanctuary was designed [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mi_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0},"categories":[28,18],"tags":[727,54,729],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.sarahtewphotography.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15807"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.sarahtewphotography.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.sarahtewphotography.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.sarahtewphotography.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.sarahtewphotography.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=15807"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/www.sarahtewphotography.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15807\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":15901,"href":"https:\/\/www.sarahtewphotography.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15807\/revisions\/15901"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.sarahtewphotography.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=15807"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.sarahtewphotography.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=15807"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.sarahtewphotography.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=15807"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
