Wedding and elopement photography in Iceland
Your wedding day is one of the most beautiful chapters of your life, and it deserves to be remembered with honesty, emotion, and timeless beauty.
I’m Petra, an Iceland wedding photographer with a love for capturing real moments in natural light. I create photos that are elegant, emotional, and powerful that will stand the test of time.
Whether you’re planning a romantic elopement in the Icelandic wilderness or a full-day celebration surrounded by loved ones, I’m here to tell your story in a genuine and heartfelt way. I photograph weddings all across Iceland - from the black sand beaches and waterfalls of the South Coast to hidden, quiet places that only locals know.
My approach is a mix of documentary and gently guided portraiture. During the ceremony and celebrations, I capture everything as it unfolds naturally - the laughter, the tears, and the little in-between moments that truly matter. For portraits, I’ll guide you in a relaxed way, giving you simple directions and examples so you never feel awkward or stiff. My couples tell me they felt completely comfortable, even if they usually don’t like being in front of a camera.
I believe in connection - with each other, and with nature. The combination of love and the Icelandic landscape creates pure magic. I want your wedding photos to reflect the joy, warmth, and closeness of your day - not just how it looked, but how it felt.
To me, being your photographer means more than just taking pictures. I want to be a friend you can trust, someone who helps you feel relaxed and enjoy every moment of your experience. My goal is that you’ll look back at your photos years from now and still feel the same happiness and love you felt that day.
If you’re dreaming of a wedding or elopement in Iceland - at Skógafoss, Gluggafoss, the black beaches, or a secret place just for the two of you - I’d be honored to capture your story.

Yes! I love capturing all types of weddings - from intimate elopements for just the two of you to full-day celebrations with family and friends. Each wedding is unique, and I adapt my approach to suit your story and style.
-
Anywhere! From iconic spots like Skógafoss, Gluggafoss, and the black sand beaches to hidden, secret locations only locals know. I’ll help you choose locations that fit your vision - whether you want dramatic landscapes or more private, intimate settings.
-
My style is classic, elegant, and timeless. I focus on natural light, real emotions, and strong, powerful imagery. I aim to create photos that feel both authentic and breathtaking, capturing not just how your wedding looked, but how it felt.
-
I guide couples gently and naturally — giving simple tasks, showing example poses, and encouraging closeness and touch. Nothing feels forced or stiff. Most couples say they feel completely at ease, even if they don’t usually enjoy being photographed.
-
My approach is documentary for ceremonies and celebrations - capturing real moments as they happen. For portraits, I provide gentle guidance to ensure the photos feel natural, relaxed, and beautiful.
-
Absolutely. Iceland is magical everywhere, and I’m happy to travel to any location - from waterfalls and glaciers to secluded beaches or cozy countryside spots.
-
Iceland’s weather can change quickly, but I embrace it! Rain, wind, and mist can create dramatic and unforgettable images. I’m prepared with the right equipment and experience to make every weather condition look stunning.
-
I take care to edit each image with love and attention, delivering a collection of timeless photos within 2 – 4 weeks. Every photo is carefully curated and edited to tell the story of your day.
-
We can absolutely do both! I’ll help you plan a mix of iconic Icelandic scenery and more private, untouched spots to create a variety of stunning images.
-
I aim to be more than a photographer - I want to be a friend and guide. I’ll make you feel relaxed, capture real emotions, and ensure your photos are not just beautiful, but deeply meaningful. Your day, your love, and Iceland’s magic become timeless memories together. You can get to know me better here.
-
Iceland’s waterfalls, black sand beaches, and mossy landscapes make for stunning photos - and sometimes a bit of adventure for your dress! A little water, sand, or wind just adds character and tells the story of your day. Don’t worry - every shot will look beautiful, and the memories are unforgettable, but be prepared to get some mud and water on your dress.
-
I offer secure online payment options, including PayPal. To reserve your date, a 35% deposit of the package price is required. The remaining balance is due after the wedding. This makes booking simple and stress-free, so you can focus on enjoying your day.
