AMSTERDAM PHOTOGRAPHER
Hi there! Welcome to Amsterdam. Here, you will find all the available photography options, and you can customize your package. If you don't see something, let me know. I am happy to help create your photography experience while visiting beautiful Amsterdam.
Planning a photoshoot in Amsterdam?
I am super happy to help you customize your photography experience in Amsterdam. This city has plenty of beautiful bridges and houses and off-the-beaten-track areas that we can explore together. This means we can go to tulip gardens if we are in the flowering season (April and early May) or visit a windmill in Amsterdam. The beauty of having longer photoshoots is that it will allow you also to combine two locations or have a tour mixed with your photo session. We can also visit to nearby cities like Haarlem or Zaans Schaans, for more beautiful memories.
Our services cover everything: engagement photo sessions, honeymoon shoots, family vacation sessions, solo and couple portraits, elopement photography, and wedding photos. Let's make your Amsterdam memories picture-perfect!
All pictures delivered are in JPG format and for Personal Use only; other options, please contact us for pricing and details.
Want a photo session in between Flowers?
Dahlia season is in September and the website is launched in June each year. Come back for more information.
Tulip season is from late March until the first week of May. All the information about the Tulip Region and Keukenhof is available from September each year.

Lifestyle Routes - The best mix between a tour and a photo session
Explore Amsterdam with a local who is also a professional photographer. Learn about the streets you will be walking, hidden places, and the history of a city that can be considered an open museum. You can decide the areas to visit, and we will create a route that combines the best of Amsterdam with photo locations to create beautiful memories of your trip.
This experience is conducted only with a private group, so it is better for solo travelers, couples, or small families, but groups can be up to 10 people. You can opt for this option to have different cities on the same day. Example: Amsterdam + Zaanse Schans, but keep in mind we go as locals do, in public transportation. If you prefer us to manage all the bookings and transportation, let us know by sending us a message to hello@joannapantigoso.com.
INCLUDES
8 hours with Joanna conducting a lifestyle route in Amsterdam.
Amsterdam Guide on PDF to give you an introduction to Amsterdam.
Online questionnaire to custom tailor your route.
We will visit different tourist attractions in Amsterdam, and you will see the history, architecture, and lifestyle of the Amsterdammer. Pictures will be taken along the way.

- Sessions happen rain or shine: If there’s light rain, we’ll adjust the route or move the time within the same day. Rescheduling to another date is only possible if there’s a serious storm.
- Please arrive on time: Late arrival shortens your session. I often have another shoot right after yours.

For Explorer and Lifestyle Routes, a partial deposit is required. The remaining balance is due once planning is complete and the meeting location is confirmed.

Walk with me
Explore Amsterdam on a casual walk with a professional photographer. This is not a historical tour, but it can be. This is also not a photo session, but I will take pictures for you on your phone if you want to have casual memories.
The focus is on life in Amsterdam, Dutch culture, and tips and facts from a foreigner's perspective who is proud to call Amsterdam home.
This option is best for small groups.
We have three routes for this, each one 2-hour long. Pick the one you prefer the most:
Route 1: City center
Route 2: Jordaan and the West Side
Route 3: Amstel River and Museumplein
Investment
€200 per route (up to 4 persons)

Hi! I'm Joanna, a photographer who has lived in Amsterdam for five years and is passionate about Amsterdam's history and museum life. I live on the west side of Amsterdam with my Dutch boyfriend and Tiny, my 2-year-old cat. I love coffee and chocolates, taking people around, showing that Amsterdam is beyond the most common areas, and creating custom routes for my clients. I love to amaze them with the beauty of Amsterdam. So, let's hang out with my camera to take home the gift of beautiful memories.
