Transcript:
Getting around Iceland on your own is surprisingly straight-forward. The main Ring Road connects all the major towns and if you stick to it, you can’t really go wrong. Now bear in mind that driving here is nothing like driving at home so there are a few things you need to know…
Summer is the time to do a driving holiday, as the roads will be open and the conditions will be good with lots of daylight. The weather in Winter can make driving difficult and once you leave Reykjavik it can get quite dangerous. It’s not recommended unless you really know what you’re doing; getting stuck in a white-out isn’t fun.
If you plan on straying off the Ring Road, then hire a four wheel drive car. the roads can be uneven and pot-holes are common. Do not go on F Roads, as hire cars are not allowed on them. Off-road driving is forbidden as it damages the environment. You’ll get fined around 350,000 Krona if caught. Speed limits: 50km in populated areas, 80km on gravel roads and 90km on paved roads. You’re required to have your headlights on at all times when driving, even during daylight. Some bridges are single lane only; the driver closest to the bridge has priority.
Petrol stations are few and far between and often unmanned. Fill up when you can and use a credit or cash card for payment. The Icelandic website road.is has lots of detailed information on driving in Iceland, so make sure to give it a read before you hire a car. And remember - you drive on the right!

Contemplating Brúarhlöð Canyon, Iceland
Brúarhlöð is the extraordinary canyon, which is located close to the Golden Circle. At a first glance, one only sees a picnic place with tables to enjoy a brought-along lunch. However, once visitors walk a bit further down, a stunning view over the canyon and its extraordinary rock formations slowly reveals itself...

Glanni & Paradísarlaut
The Glanni Waterfall on the Norðurá River is said to be the dwelling place of elves and trolls. The falls is one of a few wide river-type waterfalls in Iceland. It segments into at least three side-by-side drops as well as each one having multiple tiers. Another secret hot spot is also a little below Grábrók. Actually two spots to be precise! On your right side runs the river Norðurá with the beautiful waterfall Glanni. You'll find a nice walking path leading to it. In the end of the movie you will see the Glanni Golf Course in Springtime when no one is playing.

We still remember the excitement of getting the email from Kyle & Christina about the possibility of capturing their Iceland wedding. Almost immediately, we wrote them back with our fingers and toes crossed. We had been dying to visit Iceland and experience those gorgeous landscapes for years. After exchanging a bunch of emails, we had a great long call with them. After our call, we were even more excited as we got along with them so well and could tell this was going to be amazing. The next day after our call, we received the best email! Christina & Kyle had chosen us to photograph and film their Iceland wedding!!! OMG we couldn’t have been happier.
They both wanted to hang out in person, which we absolutely love, as we want to get to know our couples as much as possible. We met up for dinner and drinks at Borough Brewhouse and talked for hours!! It was the best time ever! We kept in contact along the way and decided to make a date for another hang out. They came over to our place for some drinks and of course, we hung out for hours again! We pretty much felt like we knew them for a long time already! It’s so great when you all can connect and have a good time.
Kyle’s sister Rachel and her boyfriend, Kelton were there to support them on their big day. They were super fun and it was so nice to have them there to assist them throughout their wedding. The day of their wedding started with a little drama…the wedding planner’s tire got a flat! It’s usually the case that something happens to make your wedding day a little later even for elopements! haha! Luckily, Pink Iceland made a call to Iceland’s super quick road service and it was fixed in a jiffy! Rachel and Kelton helped keep the relaxed vibe and making us all laugh while Christina got ready. It gave us more time to get ready which is always nice!
We started the day with their first look at their airbnb and then headed to the Fjaðrárgljúfur Canyons for their ceremony. Pink Iceland was able to get permission from the owner to have their ceremony at a location at the Fjaðrárgljúfur canyon that is closed for visitors which was pretty amazing. There are no words to describe the beauty of this place. We were in awe! Christina & Kyle had a pagan ceremony with fire and beer–so cool!
After their ceremony, we traveled around to epic locations in Iceland including Stjórnarfoss and the Lava Fields. It rained here and there but they didn’t mind at all! Nothing was stopping them from enjoying their portrait time in Iceland. Kyle & Christina portrait session was followed by a picnic arranged by Pink Iceland which included champagne, chocolate, strawberries and special Icelandic donuts. Yumm!
The day ended with a delicious dinner at the Hotel Klaustar . We chatted about meeting up the next day to travel together and get more epic photos. The next morning we woke up super early and met them at their airbnb in Kirkjubæjarklaustur. We drove along the Ring Road and stopped off at any location that looked pretty…which was very hard because everywhere we looked was jawdroppingly beautiful. The two major locations we visited were the Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon and the Black Diamond Beach. Kyle and Christina were definitely the stars of the show there which everyone taking their photo and posing with them as we walked along the beach! haha!
Then, sadly, it was time to say goodbye to them as they continued their journey further north while we stayed in Southern Iceland. We hugged goodbye but we kept in contact the rest of the week while we were all there. It was so much fun giving each other updates and tips along the way.
We can’t thank Kyle & Christina enough for bringing us along for their amazing Iceland wedding. These are memories that will be always be with us and we’re so thankful for this opportunity. Not only did we capture their wedding, but we had the best time getting to know them and gained two new friends :)
Studlagil. Iceland 2019
В долине Jökuldalur (Ледниковая долина) протекает река, известная под тремя разными именами: Jökulsá á Brú, Jökulsá á Dal, и Jökla.
Каньон этой реки с его необычными базальтовыми колоннами - потаённое природное сокровище Исландии, до которого ещё не добралась основная масса туристов.
На протяжении веков река Jökla была одной из самых больших и мощных ледниковых рек острова, и всё это время она представляла собой почти непреодолимое препятствие (даже сейчас переправу найти не так-то просто), разделявшее долину на две независимых части.
Когда в Исландии построили ГЭС Kárahnjúkavirkjun (ох!), перенаправив тем самым основные водные потоки, питавшие реку, на вращение турбин, Jökla превратилась в спокойную речушку с бирюзовой водой.
При этом обнажились удивительной красоты базальтовые колонны, скрытые до этого под бурлящими потоками (в былые времена до 120 тонн песка, ила и грязи из под ледника Vatnajokull каждый час, между прочим).

Gljufurarfoss Waterfall in Iceland
RIght next to Seljalandsfoss is this slightly hidden waterfall, Gljufurarfoss. We literally camped right in front of it for two nights we were in Iceland. Plus you could climb up to almost the height of where it was falling from to see the whole thing!

Northeast Iceland
A video from the very northeast corner of Iceland, one of Iceland's better kept secrets. This area is full of nature gems, including famous ones such as Ásbyrgi and Dettifoss but also several lesser known gems. Recent road construction has greatly improved access to this fascinating region of Northeast Iceland which is definitely worth the visit.
