Iceland Elopement & Adventure Wedding Photography for the untamed at heart

This isn’t just about photos – it’s about stories burned into memory, love unfiltered, and standing hand-in-hand in one of the last truly wild places on earth. We don’t do fake laughs or stiff poses. We do barefoot vows in black sand, wind-tangled hair, rain on your cheeks, and soul-deep connection.

Every image we make is a love letter – to Iceland, to your relationship, and to the kind of day you’ll still be dreaming about decades from now.

If you’re ready to ditch the script and turn your wedding into a story worth retelling, you’re in the right place.


if your heart beats louder in the wilderness and your vows belong to the wind – welcome home.

Behind the Camera

Two Artists. One Wild Life.

We’re Styrmir & Heiðdís – partners in life, chaos, and making art out of love. Iceland is our home, our wild playground, and the pulse behind everything we create.


This land raised us. Its weather trained us. Somewhere between mossy ridgelines and lava fields, we found our voice – equal parts cinematic, instinctual, and feral in all the right ways.


With over 300 weddings behind us, we’ve seen it all: sideways rain, blown-out veils, vows shouted into the wind. And through it all, we never lost the spark. Every image is a gut-check reminder that real love is never polished, never predictable, and always worth chasing.


So if you’re the kind of soul who’d rather howl into the wind than follow a script…

Services

What We Offer. When the Wind Howls...
Like everything in our two-wolf circus, things move – shift with the seasons, the storms, and the wild souls who stumble into our inbox. Each year, we fine-tune the madness, chasing both our curiosity and yours.

But the heart of it? That hasn’t changed. This is love turned into art. Emotion over perfection. Story over stiff poses. Whether it’s vows in a glacier canyon or running barefoot into the wind – we’re here for the feeling, not the formula.

Weddings

Make vows. Shake mountains.

An untamed celebration for you and your crew – less tradition, more thunder.

Elopements

Ditch the script. Flee into folklore.

Barefoot vows. Lava underfoot. Love with dirt under its nails.

    We had such an amazing time shooting with Styrmir & Heiddis. We got to explore Iceland and take our engagement photos at the same time. They make you feel really comfortable and not awkward at all. Our pictures were so beautiful. I love their photography and editing style – very natural, raw and organic! I highly recommend them for any special event.

    Right away we could tell that they knew their stuff; we couldn’t wait to learn some hidden secrets of our bucket list destination. And, to meet two strangers but immediately feel welcome was a comforting thought, especially when trying to plan something across the world.

    Styrmir and Heiðdís are THE most incredible photographers who played an integral role in making our Iceland wedding truly memorable. From the moment we came across their work on Instagram, we knew they were the ones we wanted to photograph our wedding day. Their passion for photography and their deep appreciation for the Icelandic landscape is abundantly clear in all aspects of their work.

    From start to finish, we loved our time with Styrmir and Heiðdís. They were kind, knowledgeable, and experts in their craft. The two of them have the understanding of their home country and the photography skills to make your vision a reality. Thank you so much to you both! We will forever remember our day (and be grateful that you were a part of it). We will cherish the amazing memories forever!

    Hiring Styrmir and Heiðdís for a couples photoshoot in Iceland was one of my best life decisions. Our photos are absolutely incredible. And almost more importantly, my husband and I had a tremendous time shooting with them. Photoshoots aren’t always the most comfortable experience, but the day we spent traveling around Iceland with Styrmir and Heiðdís was one of the highlights of our visit to Iceland. I couldn’t recommend them more highly.

    Styrmir and Heiðdís were incredible to work with for our engagement shoot in May 2024! We had never done a formal photoshoot before and were nervous about the process, but they instantly made us feel at ease. The photoshoot was so much fun and flew by, and our pictures are stunning. Thank you so much

  • david kelly
    Cannot recommend these two enough! They are such kind people who spend so much time with us over the weekend and really pushed us to get to some amazing places. They were super accommodating and made us feel completely at ease during our shoots. We had around 60 folks come to the wedding in Iceland and not only did we get all the “normal” ceremony shots, we also journeyed out into nature and took some really breathtaking photos in the nearby national park. Could not be happier with the process start to finish!

  • brigitta & bianka
    They were friendly and easy-going, helping us at the beginning to ease into the situation of being photographed at popular places and watched by tourists. They were invisible when needed to have an intimate moment but very present when needed reassurance. The photos are amazing, not just from a personal view, but because it is an award winning photographer duo, who can feel instantly who you are and catch that moment that you don’t even realise was important until after it was gone. It is not just capturing the memories but being in possession of true art from two amazingly talented artists.

    They made the day of our shoot absolutely magical. It was a chilly, rainy Icelandic day and they had no problem with it whatsoever. Despite the weather, they were friendly and made conversation the entire time. It really helped my husband and I feel comfortable in front of the camera, and made it feel like a fun adventure more so than being in front of a camera.

    I am so glad that we chose Styrmir & Heiðdís as our elopement photographers. I expected the beautiful photos, but underestimated how awesome of an adventure they would create for us. Initially I was overwhelmed with options. For some reason there are a lot of photographers that want to be paid to take pictures in Iceland. S&H are awesome locals who are go out and explore for fun, so they know their country and how to photograph it beautifully.
