our photography package

Capture your memories in stunning Icelandic nature

Combine your stay with a private photography session led by Saga Cabins co-owner and professional photographer Heiðrún Fivelstad. Explore striking natural landscapes and lesser-known locations familiar to locals, while documenting your time in Snæfellsnes with intention and artistry.

Sessions range from a two-hour Couples Adventure Session, to a four-hour Surprise Proposal Session, to a Full Day Iceland Elopement that includes coverage of your ceremony and multiple scenic backdrops.

Each experience includes a pre-arrival consultation to understand your story, define the atmosphere you want to capture, and select locations that align with your vision

our surprise proposal package

Make the most important moment perfect

Planning a surprise proposal in a foreign country involves logistical complexity and uncertainty. From selecting the right location to navigating weather variability, the margin for error is real. We reduce that uncertainty by advising on optimal proposal sites, monitoring forecasts closely, preparing contingency plans, and documenting the moment discreetly as it unfolds.

Our Surprise Proposal Package is structured to ensure the event runs smoothly and is professionally captured. After the proposal, we continue to carefully selected locations to photograph your engagement in Iceland’s dramatic landscapes while the emotion is still fresh.

  • Heiðrún Fivelstad is a world-class photographer, and working with her was an outstanding experience. What struck me most was her deep thoughtfulness and meticulous attention to detail.

    From our very first exchange, it was clear that she cared deeply about her craft and about getting everything exactly right. Her communication was thorough and intentional, presenting a clear outline of how she could achieve my vision and asking very specific questions to fully understand my intentions. I was consistently impressed by how proactive she was.

    She went above and beyond, even contacting local experts for advice on location and timing. She dedicates significant time to preparation and planning, and her responses are always quick and thorough. She is organized, professional, and clearly invested in delivering the best possible result.

    Heiðrún is also remarkably adaptable. When plans shift, she responds instantly with thoughtful alternatives and remains flexible, determined to get the photo right. She brings an impressive level of commitment to her work, braving difficult conditions and putting forth real physical effort to position herself perfectly.

    During a shoot, she demonstrates true mastery of her craft. She offers a wealth of ideas and excellent direction while remaining open to suggestions and adapting seamlessly in the moment. The photos exceeded every expectation. Beyond her extraordinary talent, Heiðrún is genuinely kind and wonderful to work with. I give her my highest possible recommendation.
