Beautiful yet dangerous, Iceland is known for its majestic mountains and rugged landscape, and is the perfect pre-wedding photo shoot location for couples who love to go on adventures.
For a couple who are globetrotters, it only seemed right if Erica and Enho went to Iceland to take their pre-wedding photos…
Amidst surreal and breathtaking Icelandic nature, they captured their love story through stunning photos taken at iconic spots like Thingvellir National Park and the old turf houses in Keldur.
During their road trip, Erica and Enho weren’t afraid to go off the beaten path — stopping often to pose in front of dramatic mountain ranges, serene lakes, and tiny moss-covered hills in old lava fields. Their adventurous energy shines through in every frame.
Erica and Enho did not just explore the rugged landscapes of Iceland, but also indulged in Iceland’s architectural gems
Erica and Enho did not just explore the rugged landscapes of Iceland, but also indulged in Iceland’s architectural gems. Posing in front of the ION luxury hotel, the Laundromat Cafe and Harpa Concert Hall, the Canadian couple managed to get a balance of nature and modern architecture photographs.
Tips for pre-wedding photoshoot in Iceland
- Plan to have your pre-wedding shoot during late April to August for the best weather.
- Iceland can be both luxurious and rugged, enjoy both aspects!
- Self drive tours are the best as you can wander at your own pace. There is so much natural beauty, and you wouldn’t want to miss it because you are on a tour bus with 50 other passengers and on a strict schedule.
- Try an Icelandic hotdog called a Pylsur, they sell them everywhere and are so very tasty. Also, try the Iceland yogurt called Skyr!
- If you take any tour, make sure you visit the Harpa Concert Hall in Reykjavik as it is an absolutely stunning piece of modern architecture!
