41 Pictures Of Captivating Nordic Nature That I Took When I Moved To Iceland
Growing up in the beautiful country of Switzerland, I never really was into nature photography. I was almost blind to the beauty that I called home. Somehow I always knew I would move somewhere else one day. I always felt drawn to the Nordic countries and Iceland was on my "want to visit one-day" list.
At one point my boyfriend and I decided to go and visit Iceland for a month and see if it could potentially be our new home. We immediately fell in love with the raw and moody landscapes. And the rest is history! As soon as we got back, we sold all of our stuff, became minimalists, quit our jobs and moved to Iceland.
Fascinated by details and minimalism, I am found most of my spare time capturing the atmospheric landscapes of Iceland. Here are a few pictures I've taken so far! Enjoy.

Stunning and very well composed photograph. It looks like an illustration out of Lord of the Rings.

“It’s okay I’m going home now, be okay tonight. I just want to be alone now, in the darkened light. That’s my favorite color blue there as the sun sets in the sky. There’s just something in the hue there, in the corner of my eye. In the darkened light, in the blue and white.” ~Beth Waters

I may be crazy, however, there's something very meditative in the water and shoreline photos! I can look at this photo and see things in the water.

Goddamn. This is a post processing masterclass. I used to do lots of work in that black and white dreamy landscape style but I wasn't this polished, and I never could figure out how to do it with colour like your boat photo. I love how you actually make things like a telephoto closeup of a waterfall work. That's seriously impressive because 99.9% of people could be told to make that exact same style photo and it would be boring as s**t.

Wow, thank you for this compliment !! I worked a lot on my editing style the last years and it's so nice to hear that you appreciate it that much. Are you a photographer as well? :)

I love Iceland. It's in my opinion one of the most beautiful countries in the world, and I definitely want to marry my girlfriend there.
