I’m Leanne Staples (hello!) an independent licensed New York City tour guide, photographer, artist and writer and I love New York City and photographing it!
I specialize in unique, off the beaten track sightseeing and photography tours, as well as group street photography workshops throughout New York City. I have been providing tours and workshops for more than 16 years to individuals, small and large groups, and even schools.

Tours and workshops can be arranged in Harlem, Coney Island, Bushwick, Long Island City, Dumbo and many other neighborhoods throughout all of NYC’s five Boroughs.
Wherever we visit, it’s always about the spirit of place.
Tours and workshops can be customized to your particular desires including urban landscape, abstract, street photography and graffiti tours, to name a few possibilities.
You will also learn about some of NYC's interesting facts and history, and for those that need it, gain valuable assistance with composition and basic camera functions, helping you to achieve your best photos.
My popular street photography workshops cater to photographers of all levels who are interested in learning the art of street photography. These urban photo walks are a great way to explore the city and are ideal for visitors to NYC and New Yorkers alike.
