My first winter Iceland pre wedding shoot and I couldn’t have asked for better conditions. I’ve been lucky enough to visit Iceland twice before but both in ‘moderate’ conditions. That means – pretty cold, but I could get by with a jumper and jacket.
This pre wedding shoot was in February and I had at least 4 layers on. It was crazy cold, with some strong winds. But Samuel and Graz were absolute heroes! I’m not quite sure how they did but thank you SO much! Fortunately they managed to escape the shoot without contracting a cold – they must have pretty strong immune systems!
Pre Wedding Shoot Locations
As well as the Blue Lagoon we visited a few other famous locations including the Black Beaches, Skogafoss waterfall and also Diamond Beach. We also stumbled on to a beautiful Icelandic church – the location I will a secret for now! And a couple of quick aurora pre wedding shoot photos at Graz and Samuel’s hotel (Black Beach suites.) As well as these locations we stopped off in random locations whilst travelling from one spot to another.
One thing I was a little worried about was the amount of sunlight. Because the pre wedding shoot was in winter there were fewer hours of light in the day. Taking photos without light is a little tricky! So whilst I prepared and bought plenty of strobes I did wonder how much sunlight we would get. We got very lucky and things turned out perfectly. We got a good 7 hours of sunlight a day and it kept at a low ‘sunset’ level all day long. Sunset – or ‘the golden’ hour is one of the best times to take photos so we got really lucky.
