I just got back from a whirlwind trip to New York City for the BlogHer ’12 Conference. Thousands of photos to sort through and much sleep to catch up on {someone pass the coffee, please}.
For now, a couple photos of the ever-fabulous NYC at night! Breathtaking and full of life. It was my first visit to the big apple and hopefully not the last!

Gorgeous photos Tammi! It was great chatting with you during Sparklecorn. Hope you had a pleasant trip home. 🙂
Tammi says
Hi Nadia!
Nice to see you again as well!
🙂
Erika @Musings From a Stay At Home Mom says
How exciting! I didn’t go this year, but I’m hoping for next! Glad you went and enjoyed it!
Trisha G. says
Wonderful photos! I’m so jealous! I would have loved to go to BlogHer this year and I’m only a 20 minute train ride from NYC. Hopefully next year though!
Tammi says
So close Tricia, do you go into the city often?
Trisha G. says
Before I had my daughter, yes. So much fun and so much to do! I miss going into the city, I’ll have to plan a trip soon =)
alissa apel says
Some great shots of the big apple! I’ve never been there. I always wanted to go.
Tammi says
It was on my ‘must see list’, so happy to have finally gone.
What an incredible city, you must make it there someday!
Nicole says
I Love NY 🙂 So magical! I’ve only been to Time Square once but it was a trip of a lifetime. Have an awesome week.
Tammi says
Agreed Nicole.
I was also IN a Flash Mob in Times Square while there. It was amazing! Will be posting about it soon!
Meryl says
Great shots – you make Time Square look so clean and sharp!!
Tammi says
Ha, thats what my husband said, ‘looks so clean there!’
Ummm, no.
But beautiful nonetheless!
🙂
Shanna Bailes says
Great photos! I have never been to New York and never had any desire to go until recently. Maybe one day I will get there 🙂
Tammi says
I think you’d like it Shanna, so much to see and do!
Joyce says
NYC is a great place to visit!

Theresa says
Very nice photos! I hope to see NY myself in person some day, but especially at night. I love big city night life!
Tammi says
Me too Theresa, it was my fave time of day. Yet, it didn’t cool off much – man, is it hot and muggy there! {says the Western Canadian gal} lol
Amy says
I can’t believe we didn’t meet! It was so crowded, though. Yikes.
Tammi says
That’s too bad Amy, but I agree – wayyyy too many people there. With 5,000 bloggers and full agendas, there’s many I didn’t see. 🙁
Learning to play and playing to learn says
So pretty! I didn’t get any up the ways photos when we went there. I will put that on my to do list if we ever go back.
Dagmar ~ Dagmar's momsense says
I was at BlogHer as well and have almost the same first picture 🙂 Too bad we didn’t get to chat.
Tammi says
That’s too bad! It was overcrowded though, they really needed a bigger and better space to host that many bloggers.
Paula J says
Bet you had a great time! I’ve never been to NYC either and must go one of these days 🙂
Happy WW!

Lynette says
GREAT pics Tammi! It’s a crazy busy place isn’t it?
Tammi says
For sure!! Very high energy!
Nolie says
What was times square like to be there in person?
Tammi says
Much honking, music, talking – very loud in general. There’s something to see at every turn and so much buzz and energy in the air.
I thought it would be stressful yet if you aren’t rushing to get to a place like the millions around you, it’s oddly peaceful. I found that is was actually relaxing to watch the rush, while I didn’t have to. Make sense?
Carol @ Always Thyme to Cook says
Great shots! The hustle and bustle and all the lights, I love the city at night! Looks like you had a great trip.
Tammi says
It was fantastic Carol, hope I am able to visit again one day. No conference, just sightseeing and wandering around more. So much to see!
Dominique@Dominique's Desk says
Lovely pictures of NEw York. I have yet to visit that city.
Mimi says
Absolutely beautiful! I didn’t realize you were going to be there! Sigh…so many bloggers I missed!
Tammi says
I missed you too Mimi?! Awe, that’s a shame!!
I’ve said it before, but there was way too many people there and way too spread out. So many missed opportunities when it’s that huge and hectic!
Sarah says
Love these photos. Gorgeous!!
Jennifer @ Mom Spotted says
You took a pic from Sweet Suite! They had an AWESOME roof top view of Times Square didn’t they!
Tammi says
That was an amazing view!! I could have stayed up there eating Pinkberry for a long time! lol
Tarasview says
wow! What an adventure 🙂
Good Girl Gone Green says
I can’t believe we didn’t see each other!!! I am so bummed! Will you be in Toronto in October??? Great pictures!
Tammi says
The plan was to be In TO in Oct with Fisher-Price, yet those plans have changed, so I won’t be there. Sorry to miss it this year! 🙁
Kylez...aka...Mrs.P says
I absolutely LOVE New York and am determined to go back there again one day. Love your photos.

jessica @peekababy says
Amazing–I’ve lived in NYC all my life and it still looks amazing!
Tammi says
Nice! I love that it’s full of action, yet you have the little parks and areas that are so peaceful and calm. Quite the place!
Brandi says
Wow Tammi, such gorgeous photos!! Glad you had a great time 🙂
Tammi says
Thanks Brandi!
Keryn @ walkingon travels says
You just can’t beat NYC at night. Can’t wait to hear what you thought of BlogHer. I really need to rearrange my travel schedule and get out there next year.
Doris Calvert says
Gorgeous photo’s!! Do you have more for those of us who will never get there:)
Tammi says
I have a few more, debating on posts. Maybe I’ll just do a photo montage instead.
Lori Popkewitz Alper says
I wish we could have met! Maybe next year. Glad you had a nice time.
Tammi says
That would have been nice Lori! So many people there, I didn’t see many whom I had set out to!
Paula Schuck says
I agree. I hope I get to return many times over. Loved it!

Anna at Mama Writes says
WOW!! Awesome photos! I love New York, and can’t wait until I have a chance to go back, as I haven’t been there in years (the towers were still there when I last went…) It looks like you had a wonderful time!!
Kayla @ TheEclecticElement says
Those pictures make me long to go back to New York!
It’s a fabulous and wonderful city isn’t it? The first time I went back in 2010, everyone kept asking me, “Is this your first time to New York?” Apparently everyone KNOWS how incredible it is ^.^
Emily says
That first shot is stunning! The light and colors are beautiful. Thank you for sharing!
Terra Heck says
I’d love to visit New York someday. Looks like a very busy place.
Judy C says
Great Photos! Would love to visit New York at some point!
