Beau and Erica came all the way to Iceland after years of marriage and a few kids, from Ohio to renew their vows under a waterfall in gale force winds. Iceland in the fall has some of the prettiest weather but also some of the craziest so there is no way of knowing what you are going to get.

Some weddings start at the edge of the world and of all the weddings we've shot none have been closer to that edge than this one. It took place in Árneshreppur in the Strandir region on the Westfjords of Iceland. A magical place you have to visit in person to truly understand. It's raw, mysterious, infinitely beautiful and remote, very remote. There is a small population that lives there year round, huddled together during the winter months blocked off from the rest of the country when the mountain passes fill up with snow. When summer comes for it's short visit the place is transformed into a paradise and paradise sounds like a good spot for a wedding.

We hiked a hill to check out a waterfall, jumped on some rocks at the beach, ate fish soup at the tiniest of restaurants and finally played in some puddles at sunset.

Trees are hard to find in Iceland and there is this ongoing joke here that if you get lost in an Icelandic forrest the only thing you have to do is stand up. But there is a spot in the far east that has a decent amount of trees, so decent in fact that you might even call it a forrest, Hallormsstaðaskógur to be exact.

We got to take part in this beautiful autumn wedding last month. It was a beautiful day, with beautiful weather, a beautiful couple, a beautiful church and beautiful light, in short almost perfect, except for the near freezing temperatures.
