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!

08/07/2012 at 2:48 pmHow exciting! I didn’t go this year, but I’m hoping for next! Glad you went and enjoyed it!
Trisha G. says
08/07/2012 at 2:53 pmWonderful 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
08/07/2012 at 8:19 pmSo close Tricia, do you go into the city often?
Trisha G. says
08/07/2012 at 8:25 pmBefore 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 =)

08/07/2012 at 2:56 pmSome great shots of the big apple! I’ve never been there. I always wanted to go.
Tammi says
08/07/2012 at 8:20 pmIt was on my ‘must see list’, so happy to have finally gone.
What an incredible city, you must make it there someday!
Nicole says
08/07/2012 at 2:57 pmI 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
08/07/2012 at 8:20 pmAgreed Nicole.
I was also IN a Flash Mob in Times Square while there. It was amazing! Will be posting about it soon!
Meryl says
08/07/2012 at 3:04 pmGreat shots – you make Time Square look so clean and sharp!!
Tammi says
08/07/2012 at 8:21 pmHa, thats what my husband said, ‘looks so clean there!’
Ummm, no.
But beautiful nonetheless!
🙂
Shanna Bailes says
08/07/2012 at 3:31 pmGreat 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
08/07/2012 at 10:52 pmI think you’d like it Shanna, so much to see and do!

Theresa says
08/07/2012 at 5:11 pmVery nice photos! I hope to see NY myself in person some day, but especially at night. I love big city night life!
Tammi says
08/07/2012 at 10:53 pmMe 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
08/07/2012 at 5:31 pmI can’t believe we didn’t meet! It was so crowded, though. Yikes.
Tammi says
08/07/2012 at 10:53 pmThat’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
08/07/2012 at 5:36 pmSo 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
08/07/2012 at 6:07 pmI was at BlogHer as well and have almost the same first picture 🙂 Too bad we didn’t get to chat.
Tammi says
08/07/2012 at 10:54 pmThat’s too bad! It was overcrowded though, they really needed a bigger and better space to host that many bloggers.
Paula J says
08/07/2012 at 6:43 pmBet you had a great time! I’ve never been to NYC either and must go one of these days 🙂
Happy WW!

08/07/2012 at 7:08 pmGREAT pics Tammi! It’s a crazy busy place isn’t it?
Tammi says
08/07/2012 at 10:55 pmFor sure!! Very high energy!
Nolie says
08/07/2012 at 7:15 pmWhat was times square like to be there in person?
Tammi says
08/07/2012 at 10:58 pmMuch 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
08/07/2012 at 7:28 pmGreat shots! The hustle and bustle and all the lights, I love the city at night! Looks like you had a great trip.
Tammi says
08/07/2012 at 10:58 pmIt was fantastic Carol, hope I am able to visit again one day. No conference, just sightseeing and wandering around more. So much to see!
[email protected]'s Desk says
08/07/2012 at 7:28 pmLovely pictures of NEw York. I have yet to visit that city.
Mimi says
08/07/2012 at 8:22 pmAbsolutely beautiful! I didn’t realize you were going to be there! Sigh…so many bloggers I missed!
Tammi says
08/07/2012 at 10:59 pmI 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
08/07/2012 at 8:40 pmLove these photos. Gorgeous!!
Jennifer @ Mom Spotted says
08/07/2012 at 8:55 pmYou took a pic from Sweet Suite! They had an AWESOME roof top view of Times Square didn’t they!
Tammi says
08/07/2012 at 11:00 pmThat was an amazing view!! I could have stayed up there eating Pinkberry for a long time! lol
Tarasview says
08/07/2012 at 9:03 pmwow! What an adventure 🙂
Good Girl Gone Green says
08/07/2012 at 9:05 pmI can’t believe we didn’t see each other!!! I am so bummed! Will you be in Toronto in October??? Great pictures!
Tammi says
08/08/2012 at 9:05 amThe 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! 🙁

jessica @peekababy says
08/07/2012 at 10:21 pmAmazing–I’ve lived in NYC all my life and it still looks amazing!
Tammi says
08/11/2012 at 8:38 amNice! 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
08/07/2012 at 10:38 pmWow Tammi, such gorgeous photos!! Glad you had a great time 🙂
Tammi says
08/11/2012 at 8:38 amThanks Brandi!
Keryn @ walkingon travels says
08/07/2012 at 11:26 pmYou 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
08/08/2012 at 5:49 amGorgeous photo’s!! Do you have more for those of us who will never get there:)
Tammi says
08/11/2012 at 8:39 amI have a few more, debating on posts. Maybe I’ll just do a photo montage instead.
Lori Popkewitz Alper says
08/08/2012 at 6:00 amI wish we could have met! Maybe next year. Glad you had a nice time.
Tammi says
08/11/2012 at 8:39 amThat would have been nice Lori! So many people there, I didn’t see many whom I had set out to!
Paula Schuck says
08/08/2012 at 6:04 amI agree. I hope I get to return many times over. Loved it!

Anna at Mama Writes says
08/08/2012 at 12:54 pmWOW!! 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
08/08/2012 at 6:49 pmThose 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
08/09/2012 at 8:34 pmThat first shot is stunning! The light and colors are beautiful. Thank you for sharing!
Terra Heck says
08/14/2012 at 4:26 amI’d love to visit New York someday. Looks like a very busy place.
Judy C says
