SNYC has had hundreds of very satisfied customers from all over the world on our tours and workshops! See their reviews here and on Trip Advisor.
I really do need to say a big thank you for taking me on board and guiding me through the streets of New York. I have started to look at the photos and I am reflecting on the time I spent with you. As I reflect, I realise that what you have to offer is invaluable and goes well beyond simply identifying possible photo opportunities. New York was really my first attempt at Street Photography and you taught me so much. I know I was probably more focused on the buildings than the people but I did take in everything you said and I did learn a lot. I came home much wiser and a much better photographer for what you taught me. In the days after the workshop, I found myself using what you had taught me and more importantly looking at what was in front of me with a completely new perspective. I came home a much better photographer and for that I will always be grateful.
As I think back, I will become increasing appreciative of the time you spent taking me to the boxing club, the bar and the street photographer. This added a completly new dimension to my experience and added much depth to my awareness and experiences of the city. Thinking back, these were invaluable occasions and I find myself talking all the time about them. They have certainly become a focal point of my discussions with people. I love being able to say that I met local artists and saw things a typical tourist may not see. I would love to return some day and have you show me more.
You may be interested to know that The New York Times published an article on Thursday 8th Dec about Advent Calendars. The relevance is that they talk about the most expensive one being one produced by Tiffany which is based on the “Equals Pi” work of Basquiat. I was so pleased that you had introduced him to me and had taken me to see the art at his studio. I do not care about the Advent Calendar at $150,000 but I am so pleased to be able to say I was at the door and I saw the work on the wall. A big thing.
Thank you so much again, for everything. You really did make a difference to my skills, my perspective and my insights to the world of art.

We meandered through the East Village and Soho, as Leanne shared stories and history and great photography tips. A perfect relaxed pace, with enough flexibility and spontaneity ("let's pop in this shop") to make the whole experience uniquely our own. Highly recommended.

Read MoreLeanne is a wealth of local knowledge and very passionate about NYC, we learnt so much from her during the day. If you love photography and want to see the real NYC spend the day with Leanne, you’ll love every moment. Next time we come back I’ll be doing another tour with Leanne for sure.
Read MoreHer suggestions on composition and her approach to taking candid photos of people we came across were pure gold. It was fascinating hearing her talking about the history of some of the buildings and places. There is so much you would miss just walking the same streets by yourself.
Read MoreI came away from both tours seeing more of New York than I would have done on my own - including the art, people, and musicians in the subway system - and a lot of images I know I'll be pleased with. And listening to Leanne's helpful comments I found ways to improve my street photography.
