How to take natural photos of children and animals on the farm

Camping is wonderful being outside, waking up to the sound of birds and roasting marshmallows by the campfire in the evening. But let’s be honest: a little extra comfort makes it even better. That’s why glamping at FarmCamps is the perfect mix of adventure and luxury. You’ll stay on a real, working farm, surrounded by animals and nature, but with all the comfort of a fully equipped tent. Wake up to the sound of cows in the distance, enjoy your morning coffee in the fresh country air, and end the day watching the sunset from your veranda.  

Glamping short for glamorous camping is the perfect mix of nature, adventure, and comfort. For families, it’s an amazing way to disconnect from daily life, create lasting memories, and let the kids experience the outdoors. At FarmCamps, you get it all: luxury tents on real working farms, surrounded by animals, open space, and peace for the parents. 

A farm is a wonderful place to take photos. The combination of playful children, curious animals, and warm light creates images full of life and emotion. Still, it’s not always easy to capture those spontaneous moments well. How do you make sure your photos remain genuine and natural, without looking too posed? Good preparation and the right camera make all the difference. 

If you dream of waking up to the salty sea breeze, spending your afternoons with sand between your toes, and ending the day by a campfire surrounded by peace and nature, then campsites by the sea are exactly what you need. At FarmCamps, we take this idea to the next level offering you luxury camping on real working farms, close to the coast, so you can enjoy the best of both worlds. 

Looking for a spontaneous getaway with a touch of luxury? Then a last-minute glamping trip at FarmCamps is exactly what you need. Escape the busy day-to-day life, enjoy the outdoors, and sleep under the stars but in a comfortable, fully equipped tent.

For many parents, a farm holiday means peace, nature and a break from the busy routine. But what makes a farm holiday in the Netherlands truly special for children? We asked kids who stayed at FarmCamps this year – and their answers were wonderfully honest and surprising.

What do holiday memories and Instagram have in common? They let you relive the best moments over and over again and inspire others to go on the same adventure. Whether it’s that very first pony ride, a freshly baked bread roll at the farm, or a cosy boardgame in the tent. These are moments that truly capture the FarmCamps experience. 

Why choose a farm holiday? Because it’s completely different from a standard getaway. No crowded boulevards or overbooked hotels, but fresh air, animals all around and plenty of space. It’s a place where you can relax and still stay active. You’ll return home with stories you’ll never forget – and with kids who won’t stop talking about their farm adventures for weeks. 

What do small-scale farms and nature have in common? Both offer an environment surrounded by greenery, animals, and that wonderful “back to basics” feeling.
