A Photography + Videography Experience Alongside Intrigue Goes to The Netherlands Luxury Retreat
Join Intrigue in Netherlands! | November 2, 3 & 4, 2026
This is not a styled shoot. It is something far more valuable.
We have had dozens, maybe even hundreds of photographers and videographers reach out wanting to be part of Intrigue's international retreats.
Last year, we welcomed six photographers to join us in Ireland as a trial. It was a resounding success, but it also inspired us to rethink how photographers and filmmakers could be part of the Intrigue experience. Rather than being separated from the planners and florists, what if we brought all 3 tracks together.
This year, we're opening the door in a completely different way and again doing a trial with just 6 Photo/Video Professionals.
Introducing Shoot & Share, an intimate photography and videography track created for artists who want to build genuine relationships with ambitious wedding florists and planners while experiencing The Netherlands in true Intrigue fashion: surrounded by extraordinary flowers, beautiful spaces and luxury experiences.
Instead of creating a traditional styled shoot, we're creating an environment where photographers, videographers, planners and florists can fully experience the retreat together.
THE REAL LUXURY IS WHO YOU'RE IN THE ROOM WITH.
The beauty you have the opportunity to capture through your lens? That's the perk.
Expect full access to a picturesque European villa and its surrounding grounds.
Expect lavish flowers, European architecture, flower farm tours, two formally dressed dinners and all the visual magic you expect from an Intrigue production brought together with the design expertise of Lemiga Events.
But those are the perks.
The real opportunity is spending three days in another country alongside driven, creative and empowered wedding florists and planners with their eyes firmly set on the luxury lane of weddings and of course destination weddings.
These aren't people you'll simply see in passing.
You'll meet them.
Eat dinner with them.
Explore with them.
Create beside them.
Talk business with them.
Laugh with them.
And potentially build relationships that continue long after we leave The Netherlands.
Because the most valuable thing you bring home may not be the incredible gallery you create.
It may be the relationship you create while you're there.
WHY SHOOT & SHARE?
Some of the most powerful business relationships aren't created at networking events or on social media.
They're created when you experience something extraordinary together.
In the wedding industry, that often happens while working together on an epic event.
For three days in The Netherlands, we're creating that epic experience.
No giant convention hall.
No exchanging business cards during a five-minute break.
No fighting to get someone's attention.
Instead, you're exploring another country together.
Visiting flower farms together.
Gathering around beautifully designed dinner tables together.
Sharing ideas, stories and experiences.
That's networking at an entirely different level.
And when you're surrounded by people who are growing, creating and moving deeper into the luxury wedding market, those relationships can have a real impact on your business.
One conversation can become a referral.
One introduction can become a collaboration.
One relationship can lead to a destination wedding.
AND YES... YOUR CAMERA IS COMING TOO.
SO, WHAT EXACTLY ARE YOU GETTING ACCESS TO?
Everything!
Shoot & Share photographers and videographers aren't being brought in as vendors standing on the sidelines. You are not given a list of tasks to complete. You are a guest and welcomed into this beautifully curated world.
From the moment we meet in Amsterdam on November 2 through our return on November 4, transportation, accommodations, meals, tours, experiences and celebrations are included. You arrive at our Amsterdam meeting location, and Intrigue takes care of the rest.
Over three immersive days, you'll experience and have the opportunity to capture:
-
The Dutch countryside as we travel through charming villages, historic architecture and flower-filled landscapes.
-
Dutch flower farms, where you'll experience the Netherlands' flower-growing region firsthand.
-
A luxury European estate, our home and creative playground for the retreat.
-
Thousands of European-grown blooms as our florists create centerpieces, bouquets and large-scale floral installations.
-
A candlelit welcome dinner surrounded by flowers, cuisine and new friends.
-
A luxury floral gala, where the designs created throughout the retreat become the setting for an unforgettable evening.
-
Private guided exploration of The Netherlands, including countryside, villages, windmills, canals, culture and hidden gems.
-
Meals, transportation, tours and private accommodations are included throughout the three-day retreat.
But perhaps most importantly, you're experiencing all of it alongside the florists and planners.
You're not arriving after the flowers are finished to photograph them.
You're on the journey with us.
You're riding through the Dutch countryside together. Touring flower farms together. Sitting down for dinner together. Exploring together. Celebrating together.
Your camera gives you an incredible reason to be there.
The relationships you build while you're there are why we created Shoot & Share
Throughout the experience, Shoot & Share attendees are encouraged to photograph and film for their own portfolios.
No required shot lists.
Shoot what inspires you. Tell the story through your own creative lens. Build a gallery that reflects not only the artist you are today, but the artist you want to become.
You'll have access to the same three-day retreat experience as our florist and planner attendees, including:
-
Historic European architecture
-
A picturesque European villa
-
Dutch flower farm and countryside tour
-
Lavish floral design
-
Decadent décor and tablescapes
-
Two styled dinner experiences
-
The beauty and culture of The Netherlands
-
Candid moments and connections throughout the retreat
There are no professional models scheduled for this retreat.
This isn't about photographing a manufactured wedding scene and leaving with the same style images you create at every wedding.
If you're looking for a traditional styled-shoot experience with epic designs, professional models and intentionally created portfolio moments captured in groups, you'll find that through Styled Shoots Across America who we are on tour with again from January to April 2027 creating EPIC styled shoots at some of the US’s most beautiful venues.
Shoot & Share is different.
It's about experiencing.
Creating.
Connecting.
Shooting.
And sharing.
In a way we're not sure has ever been done before.
