A bit about what I do
I am a professional photographer with two decades of experience in the field of photography. In the year 2000 I turned my energies towards nature photography and have since focused on capturing the essence of Iceland's landscapes and wild creatures. The long days of summer have me wandering about – sleep deprived – in search of magic moments. The short days of the Sub-Arctic winter give me the opportunity to write and contemplate on my summer wanderings.

I used to write and photograph for the now dormant Icelandic Geographic Magazine. I am also the editor of Fuglar (Birds) magazine and photographic editor for Bliki bird magazine. My respect for the nature that has given me so many wonderful experiences and images has gotten me actively involved in nature conservation, and I sit on the board of directors for Fuglavernd - BirdLife Iceland. I currently live in Stykkishólmur on the Snaefellsnes peninsula in Iceland.

International magazine credits include BBC Wildlife Magazine, National Geographic Traveler, CNN Traveller, TIME for kids, RSPB's Birds, Birdwatch, Birding World and Dutch Birding. I have authored two books in English on Icelandic nature; Icelandic Wilderness, published in 2003, and Skaftafell National Park, published in 2004.
