Apple CEO Tim Cook has been touring the Netherlands the last few days where he has been visiting with local developers and chatting it up with one of the best iPhone photographers in the game.
Annet de Graaf (Instagram: @snapthecity) sat down with Cook in Amsterdam to talk about the city along with historian Koen Kleijn. It’s unclear what Cook’s agenda is for the trip, but he’s been hitting Twitter hard the last few days saying he loves, “the rich history and creative energy of this city.”

Morning Amsterdam is Graaf’s first photography book that was recently published. All of the photos in it were taken by the iPhone 7 Plus or iPhone 8 Plus.
After meeting with Graaf and Kleijn, Cook visited Lucky Kat Studios. The indie iOS game developers currently have 8 games on the App Store, with its ninth title, Thunderdogs coming later this year. They’ve also got another game in the works that they’ve been teasing on Twitter. Tim Cook liked what he saw based on his tweet.
The Netherlands’ vibrant developer community is bursting with ideas and growing fast. Checked out the latest from @LuckyKatStudios this morning. Can’t wait to see their next game in the App Store! pic.twitter.com/b6w0qcLRxK

Of course, it wouldn’t be an official Tim Cook trip without a visit to the local Apple store. Tim dropped in at the company’s store in The Hauge to meet the team and snap a few photos before moving onto his next stop.
