Private Rembrandt and Vermeer Photo Experience

Very nice couple experience!

I wanted to treat my husband, Milo, to the experience of having a photo taken together in the style of 17th-century masters like Vermeer and Rembrandt. We are both Italian, and after nine years in the Netherlands, it seemed like a lovely idea to celebrate our marriage with a photo that made us feel even more Dutch. The experience with Sander was truly delightful—not only because his studio is so quirky and surprising (he has indeed meticulously recreated Vermeer’s The Milkmaid in real life, hence the name of the experience), but also because, once we shared our concept with him, he immediately set to work bringing it to life; we could see that we had really sparked his creativity. It was, I’d say, fun for all three of us. I would certainly recommend it—and we might even do it again ourselves, trying out different poses and costumes!

2 Hour Making Rembrandt's Traditional Oil Paints in Amsterdam

Absolutely Worth It!

We had an excellent time with Eric! He was superb in his expertise, patient, and a great guide. Especially for me and my friend, as we have pretty much no experience painting! We learned a lot about Dutch history, as well as Rembrandt. He is super friendly and quite knowledgeable about current Rembrandt related happenings, such as the Night Watch conservation and the Rembrandt house museum, as well.
