NYC At Night

New York City is, truly, the city that never sleeps. Walk its streets at night and you’ll be greeted by starlight from high windows, street lamps, taxis, and passersby. There is a rhythm to New York City nights. Join me on a highlight tour of the nights I’ve spent photographing The Big Apple.

City Nights:

There is a rewarding challenge to photographing Gotham at night. However, from grainy snaps of street photography, to panoramic long exposures, there’s no lack of excitement and iconic scenery to be experienced. I’ve spent many years taking in the city nights. Enjoy your tour!
