Itinerary
Sunrise
Due to the size and distance, we are traveling to different accommodation, so we will be on location for the best sunrise spots.
Locations will vary depending on the weather & light.
Day
We will find a suitable location to stop for lunch. The day will be spent traveling to different location, the more we can do the better, all this is weather permitting as the Iceland can be very unprodictable at time.
Sunset
We round off the day with a sunset shoot depending on our location, timings vary according to time of year and our location.
We will aim to get to somewhere good for sunset, and to make the most of the time we have together.
Your shooting day will end after sunset unless we get the Northern Lights alert, then we will head to a loctaion near us for some night photography.
Evening
Evening dinner will be another shared affair, as eating out is not really an option on the Iceland.
Unwind ready for the next day. We will be in one house so this time will be to share and chat, making friends and or just chilling out in your rooms and getting some sleep.
