Southern Iceland Post Wedding Session (Iceland Honeymoon)

Iceland Wedding Planner — Mon, 13 Jul 2015 01:00:50 +0000

Iceland is an island full of dramatic landscapes. The land proves to be the moodiest and most unpredictable on the planet. As I’m sure you remember, the day before this Southern Iceland Honeymoon Session, Miranda and Pete held an EPIC blue sky wedding at Godafoss Waterfall. If you need a refresh on their Iceland wedding day adventure, feel free to go back and check out the previous posts here:

We drove from Lake Myvatn to Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon very early the day after their dreamy Icelandic Elopement. I think we drove through clouds, fog, rain, hail, and secret bits of sunshine within those 6 hours. That is one thing you must remember about driving in Iceland, is that the weather can change very quickly so you must take caution and prepare. When we arrived at the stunning Iceland glacier lagoon it was raining and windy, but Miranda and Pete embraced the crazy weather and just cuddled closer! Perfect excuse, right?! Yes!!!

Our next stop was a few more hours drive to the beautiful and world renowned black sand beach called, Reynisfjara. The rain, waves, and dodging the tourists became a bit more of a challenge for us but well worth it! I mean how can you resist the texture and the tones of the basalt rocks emerging from the land and sea? The cave there provided a bit of shelter for us from the rain too, it was uber romantic!

Our last stop had to include another waterfall… Since after all that is where we began their amazing Iceland wedding adventure! Skogafoss Waterfall proved to be a perfect stop for some magic to happen! The rain, the sounds, sights, and mist, and the playful romance Pete and Miranda shared was totally fairytale like! Okay okay okay now let’s all be green with envy and look that these stunning Iceland post wedding images!

To Miranda + Pete:

Your romantic Icelandic elopement was the definition of a fairytale! I’m so happy for you both and that you chose the land of fire and ice to say start your new chapter together! Days like yours in Iceland are rare… Endless blue skies, epic amount of dramatic scenes, with a side of lifetime love! I’m thrilled you chose me to help you plan and forever document it! I hope your passion for each other, adventure, and travel thrives and you continue to inspire all around you with it! I know you left me encouraged. Please find your way back to Iceland and I’ll find my way back to Atlanta for a reunion adventure!

Lots of love and hugs to you! PS- This fab session was also featured on my FAVORITE Bachelorette’s website: Desiree Hartsock, go check it out here.

Iceland Honeymoon Session at Fjaðrárgljúfur Canyon

Iceland Wedding Planner — Thu, 14 May 2015 07:54:24 +0000

“Love isn’t something you find. Love is something that finds you.” – Loretta Young

Julian + Fredrik met each other while at a week long conference with friends. Neither of them were looking for love per se, but sometimes serendipitous connections lead you down that wonderful unforgettable path! These two gents were actually married in Sweden in April and chose Iceland to honeymoon- good idea, right? The fabulous Fredrik, surprised Julian with a Post Wedding Session Adventure as his day of wedding gift! Seriously how fun and thoughtful is that?

Fjaðrárgljúfur Canyon is one of my favorite places in Iceland because it feels like you alone, just discovered it! This gorgeous Iceland canyon is over 1 mile long, over 300 feet tall, and has a beautiful river flowing through it. So as you can imagine, I was seriously stoked when they chose it off my long list of options for their Iceland Honeymoon Session!

I had such a fun afternoon with these two and happy to say they crossed off a few “firsts” off their list too… Such as having a date in a lava field and stealing kisses in a canyon =) Makes me happy to document their honeymoon adventure- thank you for choosing me gentlemen! The best part of my job includes… Meeting cool couples like these two, climbing on sides of mountains like a badass mountain goat, and running around on 500 year old moss covered lava fields! Ummm, yes any day of the week, please!!! Without further ado, may you find yourself inspired by these Iceland Post Wedding images!

Iceland Engagement Session: Öxarárfoss Waterfall (Thingvellir National Park Pre Wedding Session)

Iceland Wedding Planner — Tue, 19 Aug 2014 20:26:09 +0000

In the fall of 2013, Tara and Landon emailed us and simply said, “Looking to elope in Iceland this coming summer –just the two of us, no big show, and no guests. But we need somewhere spectacular, like a waterfall, a glacier, or the top of a mountain. We’re adventurous, so anywhere is an option for us.”

Thus it began! My mind starting reeling! In case you missed our last post sharing their wonderful Iceland wedding video, feel free to go back here and delight in it. Fun Facts: Tara and Landon are from Calgary, Alberta Canada and they are both Geologists by trade. They are enthralled with earthy matters, the textures, tones, and history that has made Iceland evolve. When we were brainstorming on Iceland pre wedding locations for their Iceland engagement session we kept coming back to most historic landscapes in Iceland, Thingvellir National Park.

Luckily Iceland’s 5 day rain stent didn’t even phase us! Landon and Tara embraced the unruly weather by donning Icelandic sweaters, hats, and hiking boots to ensure the adventure level was at it’s max =) Our favorite kind of clients! During their e-session at Öxarárfoss Waterfall they tested their limits by venturing out onto cliff edges, enduring waterfall spray, hoping marshy islands, and running hand in hand around the Iceland tectonic plates (European and North American tectonic plates).

It was a magical evening and proves how exciting an Iceland e-session can be, even in the rain. They held their Iceland destination wedding the next day on the top of famed Mýrdalsjökull Glacier which is on the rim of the Katla Volcano… Woohoo! So please stay tuned next time for that awesomeness we will be sharing!
