Amsterdam Photo Session: A Thoughtful Gift That Captures Memories

One of the great advantages of Gift Cards is their flexibility. They can be used when the time is right, making them a perfect present for travelers. You can be planning a trip to Amsterdam already, or gifting an unforgettable experience to a loved one visiting the Netherlands, Gift Cards offer value that lasts. Even better, with pricing increasing every September, purchasing a Gift Card today locks in the current rate for up to two years.


This particular session was a special gift from a friend who wanted something meaningful: a guided photo walk in Amsterdam, paired with a mini photoshoot to document not only the city but also a beautiful chapter in her life: traveling with a baby on board.


We met at Amsterdam Centraal Station, shared a coffee, and had a relaxed chat about her goals for the session. I always emphasize how important this initial conversation is, especially for solo travelers. It builds connection, sets expectations, and eases any nervousness about being in front of the camera. Taking time to connect over coffee adds a personal touch to the experience, and if time allows, I'm always happy to include it.


Together, we explored the city, capturing timeless moments among canals, cobblestone streets, and iconic architecture. Her joy and glow made every frame special.


Here are some highlights from her beautiful Amsterdam photo session. And if you are coming soon, see you in Amsterdam anytime,
