Amsterdamian is a digital magazine about Amsterdam and the Netherlands, about the places, the people and the stories that make this country what it is. Since 2011, it has been a space for original writing and photography, covering everything from neighbourhood walks and cultural events to day trips, interviews and the quieter side of Dutch life.
Behind Amsterdamian is Dana Marin, a writer, photographer, accredited journalist and member of the Foreign Press Association of the Netherlands. Every article is written and photographed by me, which means a consistent editorial voice and visual identity across everything I publish. Want to know more about me? Check out the About me page.
Audience
Amsterdamian’s readers are a mix of locals, expats and international visitors with an interest in Amsterdam and the Netherlands. These are people planning trips, exploring their own city or the surroundings, or staying connected to Dutch culture and lifestyle.
If you’d like to reach an engaged audience interested in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, travel, culture and lifestyle, here’s how we can work together.
Advertise with Us
I publish a limited number of sponsored articles each month from brands and businesses relevant to Amsterdam and the Netherlands. Each article is written by me in my editorial voice, illustrated with original photography whenever possible, and published on Amsterdamian with the same care as any other piece on the site.
What I offer:
— Sponsored articles and reviews
— Newsletter features and mentions
— Affiliate partnerships
All sponsored content is clearly labelled and written to genuinely inform or inspire my readers. That’s what keeps them coming back, and that’s what makes it work for you too.
I don’t publish articles written by third parties and I’m selective about the brands I work with. If there’s a fit, the results are better for both of us.

Press & Event Coverage
I regularly attend press events, exhibition openings and cultural happenings in Amsterdam and the Netherlands, and cover them editorially on Amsterdamian. If you’re organising an event or launch and think it would be a good fit for my readers, I’d love to hear about it.
Editorial & Photography Services
Beyond Amsterdamian, I’m available for commissioned work as a writer and photographer. My strength is the ability to deliver both: the writing and the images to go with it.
I write articles for magazines and publications, both online and print, on topics including travel, lifestyle, culture. I have over a decade of experience writing for the web and have published hundreds of articles across two personal publications and various external outlets.
As a photographer, I offer portrait sessions, event and editorial photography, content photography for brands, and a unique Wander and Frame photographic experience outside of Amsterdam. You can see the full details on my photography pages.
Let’s talk!
Have something in mind? Please reach out, whether it’s a sponsorship, a press invite, a commission or just an idea. I’m always open to a good conversation.
