Stígur (The Path)

I like finding my own spots.

But every so often, another photographer offers a unique suggestion. Sometimes a nudge from someone else points me somewhere I'd never have found on my own.

That's how we ended up in a lupine field just off Highway 54 on the south side of the Snæfellsnes Peninsula. Late June in Iceland means the lupines are everywhere, but finding a place to pull over and take photos of them in can be a challenge. This field had something the roadside patches didn't. A narrow trail cut straight through it.

I set up low, letting the path lead my eye in. Then I looked up to see the full picture. The mountain in the background completed the photo. It was there, just waiting to be noticed. So majestic, it makes me wonder why this one isn't more popular and why I don't see more photos of it. It's a great backdrop, and this field is perfection.

Elding (Lightning)

Some of you may remember the story of my first aerial flight over Iceland's glacial rivers in 2025, I finally pulled this piece to be printed.

This particular river is one that catches my eye every time. From the plane, the river branches cut across the land like something electric, like lightning frozen in place. My husband described it before I could put words to it. So simply, the Icelandic name for lightning, Elding, felt right.

The colors here are all Iceland, milky whites and deep blues shaped by glacial silt and volcanic sediment, no two rivers ever the same. These are all reasons why I love this one.

Elding is a limited edition of 50, signed and numbered. Message me to claim one before I take this to Minot's Fjord Fest.

Vinátta (Friendship)

Icelandic horses surprised me. I expected them to be wild and elusive, something you photograph from a distance and leave alone. Some were like that, uninterested, going about their day like we weren't there at all.

Others were the opposite. They would walk up to the fence, right up to us, looking for attention or hoping we had food. Curious, friendly, almost needy.

This photograph came from somewhere in between. Two horses standing close, heads resting against one another.

I learned later that this grooming isn't just affection, it is how horses build trust with each other. Mutual grooming strengthens bonds within a herd.

I have to note, these two also have nicknames. Through a naming contest which Adam won, they became Biscuit and Gravy, which might seem a little silly next to a word as tender as Vinátta, but I like that too. Vinátta is the title. Biscuit and Gravy is what they'll probably always be called.

Some photographs are planned for months, even years. This one was pure luck.

The first piece in my new Iceland collection began with a long drive north, to Raufarhöfn, the northernmost village on the Icelandic mainland. The Arctic Circle sits just offshore here, and in midsummer the sun never truly sets. It only drifts down to the horizon, hovers, and begins to rise again.

What I didn't realize until the day we arrived: it was the summer solstice. And we were visiting the Arctic Henge, a monument built precisely for that one day of the year.

Watching the sun with the others who had gathered to see it, the whole night felt surreal. The low gold light never faded. The scale of those stones against an empty horizon.

Sólarhlið" is Icelandic for "sun gate." It felt like the only possible name. Sólarhlið debuts at the Fjord Folk Fest in Minot, ND in a couple weeks as the first piece in the Sögur Collection. It is a limited edition of 50, signed and numbered. Let me know if you'd like to reserve a piece.

Vindur (Wind)

This one's for the horse lovers. 🐴❤️

This horse was one of the curious ones. It walked straight toward us, ears forward, clearly expecting either affection or a snack, and got neither, just a camera pointed its way.

For a moment it stood still and looked right at me, mane whipping in the wind.

I named this one Vindur, the Icelandic word for wind. This photo isn't just about the horse, but the constant wind, and the boldness of an animal that walked toward strangers instead of away from them.
