How do I recover files from my broken mac air?

Hi! My old mac air suffered from unrepairable water damage and I just recently purchased the new mac 2015? However, I lost all photo/files and wondering if there is any way to recover all my data and transfer to my new mac? Thank you!

MacBook Air (13-inch, Early 2015)

You need to pull the SSD from the old/broken MacBook Air and put in in an enclosure (as Bob suggested).

You can purchase the enclosure at OWC here: Envoy Pro enclosure for Apple Original SSD

(Select the enclosure compatible with the year of your MBA)

You'll also need these: http://eshop.macsales.com/item/NewerTech/TOOLKITMBA/

Heres a video, check that its for your MBA: 2010 13-inch MacBook Air SSD Install
