New York City is a place of endless discoveries. To show it all off, we’re excited to announce #StreetEasyFinds. Share your NYC finds with us on Instagram: Photos of homes, views, neighborhoods, or anything you’d like, and we’ll share our favorites. Each month, we highlight the work of one of our favorite NYC photographers as they share their #StreetEasyFinds with us.
Today, we’re pleased to introduce Maria Dewing, a photographer who was born and raised in New York City.
NAME: MARIA DEWING // ACCOUNT: @WERDENWIRHELDEN
FROM: MANHATTAN // ACCOUNT EST: 2014
ACCOUNT BEGINNINGS:
I like to share more obscure places that aren’t necessarily considered hip, or candid street scenes that show the energy of cities. I used to draw and paint when I was younger, but photography was always of interest to me. I travel frequently and love exploring New York, so my account was the perfect opportunity to share my discoveries.
FAVORITE SPOTS TO PHOTOGRAPH IN NYC:
Everything below 14th Street and Greenpoint.
MARIA LOVES NYC BECAUSE:
The grand scale of this city, its endless possibilities and the rich cultural landscape. I am also endlessly enamored with our culinary scene and all the music — the jazz clubs, Lincoln Center, the downtown venues — I live for it!
DREAM CITY OUTSIDE OF NEW YORK:
I can’t choose just one! Vienna, Paris and Montréal all agree with me.
