Couple photoshoot on the bridges and side streets of the canal ring

A couple photoshoot that moves between the canals and the narrow streets connecting them: canal railings lined with bikes, a side street hung with flags, a bench under a street lamp, a wooden bridge and a coffee to finish. One hour.

Where we walked

1. Along the canal

We started at a canal railing lined with parked bikes, then a close embrace under the bare trees by the water.

2. A side street with flags

The short streets that cross between the canals are narrower and quieter. One of them was hung with flags, which gives a long, colourful frame behind a kiss.

3. A bench under a street lamp

A bench facing the canal, with an old lamp beside it: a few frames from behind, looking out over the water, are often the ones couples print.

4. A wooden bridge

On a wooden bridge in front of tall brown canal houses we photographed a walk across, then sitting together on the boards.

5. Doors, shutters and a coffee

We finished with a pair of wreathed double doors, a house with red shutters and a coffee at a canal railing with the whole canal behind.

Why mix canals and side streets

The canals give the wide, open Amsterdam frames; the side streets give closeness and colour. Alternating between them every few minutes keeps a one-hour gallery varied.
