Top things to do in New York.

It took me a 30 hour plane trip from Perth to get to the big apple- New york and it was so worth it! I had two days to sight see before I shot a beautiful couples elopement and then it was time to fly home- so what did I do?

Walk the streets in the Upper East side. This is the stuff of movies- mansions with door mans and chandeliers and beautiful iconic New York streets.

Brooklyn Bridge- Go before 6am and you will have the bridge all to yourself. Anytime after 9 and the tourists come out and its almost impossible to get a fab photo without a lot of people in the background.

New York Public Library- A stunning building right in the centre of the city on 5th avenue.

Visit Dumbo- A little suburb lined with cool cafe’s right on the river with Manhattan as a backdrop. Again, go early in the morning if you’d like street photos without 100 tourists in the background all taking selfies.

Catch a Taxi.

Dont leave this city without jumping into an iconic yellow taxi.

Top of the Rock- for the best view of the city.

Find some $1 New York Pizza! This is not a joke, $1!

Walk through Central park! I had no idea it was so lush and beautiful.
