About This Tour
Iceland… it’s truly hard to put into words. How do you explain to a fellow photography lover what it feels like to wander through a place like this and realize, very quickly, that you’ve never seen anything quite like it? Not even photographs do it justice: the colors, the stories, the sheer variety and scale of the landscapes. Waterfalls dropping nearly 200 feet, glaciers meeting black-sand beaches, icebergs glowing gold as they mirror the sky, and that low winter sun that warms the tones of moss growing over ancient volcanic rock. Then there are the geysers, powerful, unpredictable, unforgettable. And then night arrives. If the sky ignites in green… well, it becomes almost impossible to describe what happens inside you. The Northern Lights can stop you in your tracks—goosebumps, a caught breath, and yes… tears of joy (it still happens to us, every time). This is only a small taste of what this photography journey in Iceland can give you. It’s the kind of experience that stays with you—one that changed us, and one you simply don’t forget. Each year we return to the far North to teach landscape photography to passionate travelers like you. We guide you from the most important starting point: building a real emotional connection with the land in front of you. Our instruction is designed to support both beginners and advanced photographers, with clear guidance in the field, thoughtful coaching, and plenty of time to create. And because we manage the entire trip and all logistics, you can relax and focus on what you came for: seven days of creative energy, breathtaking scenery, and light you won’t find anywhere else in the world.
