Frequently Asked Questions


Where are you based?

I am originally from the serene eastern part of Iceland where I grew up on a farm called Birkihlíð. I now call Reykjavík my home, where I live with my wonderful fiancé and our two-year-old son.

What is your turnaround time?

I understand the excitement of seeing your wedding photos. I will send a few sneak peaks the 1-2 days after your wedding. However, it takes around 3-4 weeks for me to complete the editing process and deliver your final gallery (During high season, the delivery of your full gallery can take up to 6 weeks). Quality is my priority, and I'll ensure the wait is worth it.

How many images do you include?

The quantity of photos provided depends significantly on your event's schedule and activities. While I don't have a set minimum or maximum, a typical range is approximately 30-50 images per hour of coverage. For instance, an 8-10 hour wedding could yield around 240-500 images.

Do you charge a deposit?

Yes, I do require a deposit of 50% to secure your date. This deposit is due at the time of booking and is non-refundable. It ensures that your chosen date is reserved exclusively for you.

What is the booking process for hiring you as our wedding photographer?

Booking with me is straightforward:

- After receiving your inquiry, we'll schedule a video call to discuss your vision, preferences, and any specific requirements.

- Following our conversation, I'll create a proposal outlining package options, pricing details, and additional services.

- If you're satisfied with the proposal, I'll send you a booking agreement that outlines all terms and conditions.

Can you help us select ideal locations for our wedding photos?

Absolutely! I have extensive knowledge of Iceland's diverse and picturesque locations. Depending on your preferences, I can recommend spots that align perfectly with your vision, whether it's rugged landscapes, serene beaches, or iconic landmarks.

How do you handle the unpredictable Icelandic weather during wedding shoots?

The unpredictable weather is part of Iceland's charm. I'm experienced in making the most of changing conditions to ensure that your photos are captivating, regardless of the circumstances.

Do you offer both wedding photography and video?

While I'm dedicated to capturing your special day in the best way possible, I usually don't provide both photography and videography simultaneously. Effectively covering both roles can be challenging, and I wouldn't want to miss any precious moments.

However, I do have a special touch—I love incorporating a few video clips into our sessions to add an extra dimension to your memories. These clips can complement your photography and provide a dynamic glimpse of your wedding day. If you're interested in this unique blend of photography and videography, let's discuss it during our initial consultation to tailor your experience to your preferences.

To ensure you receive the highest quality of both photography and videography, it's advisable to have separate professionals for each role. I'd be more than happy to recommend a wedding videographer who specialises in complementing your photography needs. This way, you'll have a dedicated team preserving every unforgettable moment of your day.

How do you work with camera-shy couples?

I understand that not everyone is comfortable in front of the camera. My laid-back and relaxed approach helps couples feel at ease, resulting in natural and beautiful photographs.
