This isn’t just a photoshoot. This is the day you’ll never forget.
Eloping in Iceland means saying goodbye to stress, timelines, and expectations—and saying yes to intimacy, nature, and something that feels like you.
Iceland offers a wedding day like no other: black sand beaches, waterfalls you can walk behind, volcanoes, glaciers, and wild open landscapes where you can just be yourselves. No guest list pressure. No traditions you don’t believe in. Just the two of you, surrounded by nature that makes you whisper “wow.”
Whether it’s a symbolic elopement or a legally binding ceremony, I’ll be your guide, planner, and photographer—so you can fully enjoy your once-in-a-lifetime moment
