🗓️ Our 2025 tulip field photoshoots are available from April 14th to May 6th! We’re flexible with dates and keep an eye on updates, so we may be able to accommodate shoots a bit earlier or later if there are still tulip fields in bloom.
Since these shoots are extremely popular and spaces are filling up fast, we often sell out in advance—so please book as soon as possible to avoid disappointment. 🌷
In order to ensure that each session receives the best service, our booking calendar will close after a certain number of confirmed bookings.
Tulips are a symbol of the Netherlands, and when they are in full bloom is a truly magical time. From mid-April to mid-May of 2025, you will only be able to enjoy this exclusive experience. If you’re lucky enough to be visiting the Netherlands during tulip season, be sure to add this tulip experience to your to-do list!
Get a glimpse of the tulips with our professional photographer and founder, Sandra. In 2018, she decided to take a risk and become a full-time photographer. She created the only all-in-one tour in Holland that combines a tulip photoshoot experience with a customised tulip and flower fields bike tour.
The beautiful tulips are a perfect background to photograph couples, solo travellers, proposals, engagements, children, families, and bachelorette parties.
Sandra’s main focus is to photographing your fun and laughter amid the tulips and flowers creating natural and candid photos that capture the essence of your experience.
What makes The Netherlands one of the world’s most unique countries? The nightlife, the old Dutch houses, the canals, and the TULIPS!
Tourists who visit Amsterdam in spring without visiting the picturesque tulips are missing out on one of their most amazing photographic opportunities. We can’t let that happen to you!
To avoid the crowds of tourists and strong light, our photoshoots in the tulip fields take place in the early morning.
This is our most recommended mode of transport, allowing you to make the most of your shoot while exploring different tulip fields and backgrounds. You’ll have two options:
Going the Dutch way—biking! This is how we began offering the first and only tulip field photoshoots and bike tours back in 2019. All the routes are flat (we are in the Netherlands, after all!). For this option, we recommend being a bit sporty.
We work with local bike providers to offer you comfortable bikes for the tour. However, in recent years, more farmers have been closing their tulip fields due to the damage caused by tourists. If we’re shooting in the Bollenstreek area, we’ll pass by tulip fields on our route and then stop at a tulip farm for the shoot.
We are also exploring the possibility of shooting in the northern regions of the Netherlands, but we can’t confirm yet, as we need to check the route and timing. Tulip fields are typically spread out, so we want to ensure the best experience.
We always do our best to customise your shoot.
Photographing tulips with a professional photographer – a fun and easy way to capture memories of your trip! Our local photographer will focus on taking care of everything, so you can relax and enjoy the experience. No modeling experience needed – just relax, have fun, and let your photographer pose you amidst the tulips.
Upon arrival at the meeting point, your tulips adventure begins with a warm welcome from your professional tulip photographer, Sandra. Pick up your rental bike and let Sandra lead you on a tulip adventure through the dutch tulips.
As part of your adventure, our photographer will share interesting facts about the Netherlands and tulip mania as well as record unforgettable videos on her mobile phone. Imagine a video of yourself walking surrounded by tulips or having as a background a huge field—a keepsake to cherish forever.
Discover the beautiful tulips and flowers and enjoy a lifetime experience being photographed surrounded by them! It’s time to be the star of an incredible photoshoot and let a professional photographer photographing you surrounded by a perfect canvas of color—imagine orange, white, pink, or red tulips!
That’s no problem at all! For those who cannot bike our tailored bike route and photoshoot around the tulip fields, we can offer other wonderful alternatives and tips.
For example, if you like, we can also recommend you a great rental car company, meet you at your hotel, and give you directions so you can drive us to the tulip fields yourself!
Other options can be to shoot at a flower garden and tulip fields theme parks that we can recommend or at the Keukenhof Tulip Gardens.
Don’t hesitate to contact us so that we can create the ideal tulip flower field session for you!
During springtime, from mid-March to mid-May throughout the South and North of the country is transformed into a beautiful image, a sea of flowers. The timing of the tulips in full bloom may vary by a few days each year, depending on the weather. The weather conditions, such as sun light, rain, land and ground, can make the flowers and fields appear different.
Despite the fact that the tulip season changes every year, we always make sure that you get photos in the tulip and flower fields, so we created an approximate calendar for your convenience:
April 1st-13th. The early weeks of spring are adorned with vibrant flower fields bursting with daffodils, hyacinths, and narcissus. During this time, tulips have yet to bloom.
April 14th – 18th. There are tulip fields that have bloomed, but not all of them. There are already blooms on the flowers fields as well (daffodils, hyacinths, narcissus).
April 18th – May 5th. Tulips, Daffodils, hyacinths, and narcissus fields are in full bloom.
May 6th – 12th. Although farmers usually chop the heads off their tulip fields in the first week of May, we can still shoot in tulip fields theme parks or at Keukenhof. Our recommendation is to shoot the tulips until May 6th because they are already more destroyed and wilting the last days.
While our tulip photoshoots are typically available from mid-April to late May, we may be able to accommodate you for an early April shoot if desired. However, please note that tulips will not be in full bloom during this time, and you would only be able to capture photos of flower fields. If you are interested in an early April photoshoot, please let us know and we will check our availability.
As soon as you make your booking, we’ll provide you with a detailed summary of bike and car rental options near our meeting point and a comprehensive breakdown of transportation options from Amsterdam to Keukenhof, along with their respective costs.
Please note that your travel costs and rental bike or car are not included in the cost of this photoshoot. We recommend booking your travel and rental bike in advance to ensure availabilityHere are the additional expenses you will need to consider:
When you are not traveling during the peak full bloom period of the tulips, we would be happy to suggest great alternatives!
1. One of them is shooting and visiting the famous Keukenhof. This 2025 Keukenhof garden will be open from the 20th of March until the 11th of May from 08:00 am till 19:30 pm.
2. Another enjoyable option is to visit one of the many tulip fields theme parks that we recommend. Choose your favorite from our curated recommendations!
Similar to the Keukenhof situation, there will be fewer tulips in full bloom in March than in April at the tulip fields theme parks. Additionally, some tulips may be dead after visitors walk around and touch them around the second week of May.

🗓️ We offer two daily shoots in the tulip fields: 9:00 AM and 12:00 PM. We prioritise filling the 9:00 AM slot first. However, if the 12:00 PM slot is more convenient for you, let us know!
Sunset shoots are truly a rare treat—available only upon request and when booked in advance so we can plan every detail just for you. We work long hours during the tulip season, which means these sessions are limited and subject to an additional Sunset Fee of 80€ (VAT excluded).

I normally do not shoot on public holidays but there may be some exceptions. Weekends are my days off so I can maintain a good work-life balance and give my best for each shoot. Occasionally, I am happy to accommodate clients who cannot make it during the week, such as for events, commercial shoots, or private clients.
I am available Saturday or Sunday when it works best for the client, but it is recommended shooting early in the morning because there may be more people around in some locations. The “Weekend fee” is already calculated in the calendar when choosing Saturday or Sunday.
24€ each (excl. VAT) – Professional Retouching
On top of the photoshoot price, the 3 working days turnaround price is 125€ (excl. VAT).
