CLDescription
Through my work as a landscape photographer in Iceland I have learned a lot. Every trip offers a new lesson. Both in photography and life itself. For me, the best moments in life are those when I connect with nature. That includes connecting with myself and others – since we are all an inseparable part of nature.
To evolve as a photographer, one needs to shoot – and then shoot some more. It’s the same principle for everything we want to master. The more we work on it, the more we learn. But for most of us time is limited and therefore time is quite valuable.
If you are looking for a guide in Iceland that doesn’t just take you to locations, but actively takes part in sharing the passion of photography, then look no further. Sharing this passion with people is a privilege that I am lucky to call my job.
I focus on private workshops and I take great pride in representing my country. I have over 20 years of experience as a professional photographer and I am an educated guide from the University of Iceland. For many of my clients the time the spend with me is the only time they will visit Iceland. How we spend that time and what we come away with is no small responsibility.
My mission is to share the passion of photography, create great memories and offer the best photographic experience – rain or shine, day or night.

Spent a great day with CL in a small group with my film student son and wife. He picked us up from our hotel on the Snaesfellnes peninsular for a day exploring and taking pictures. We exchanged mails ahead of the trip and he brought along a sturdy tripod and a set of ND and graduated filters for us to play with in sometimes trying weather conditions - cold due to a fierce wind, even if the sky was pretty sunny. Originally we had planned a late afternoon start until around sunset - +/- 23:00, but given the windchill we decided to shift to a 10:00 pick-up and finished around six. Without a doubt CL helped us find locations that we would have missed travelling on our own, explaining through the eyes of a local Icelandic culture and geology. He was an engaging person with whom to spend a full day.
