Review by John, United Kingdom

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.

I must say Leanne is very knowledgeable about these neighborhoods as well as photography. She is a true artist. As we walked through the streets we discussed photography processes and techniques and about the history of the New York.

Not only is Leanne creative in her approach to photography, she is creative in her outlook on life. She showed me cool camera techniques and also how to look at the world differently and express that in my pictures.

Review by Keith, Brooklyn

The 3 hour tour, filled with great advice from a professional photographer as well as interesting facts about the neighborhood, was a highlight of my weekend. Normally I would not do a photo shoot in Harlem so it was interesting to get her perspective and visit a new area of the city.

A great way to see this famous city through the eyes of a local, find places you may otherwise miss, those you wish to return to and find out on your first day that the Subway is easy, NOT scary and a much faster and cheaper way to travel across town than a taxi!

Leanne, I wanted to thank you for your expert assistance on our photoshoot in El Barrio and Harlem on June 25, 2015.  Mike, Bruce and I got some excellent shots we would not have gotten if it weren’t for your guidance through these interesting areas.
