Droning the Icelandic Highlands Photo Workshop

In this photo workshop, we will explore the magnificent Highlands of Iceland and capture the stunning landscapes from above while you will learn to photograph with your drone.

In this workshop we’ll teach you everything you need to know, from unboxing to take-off, and landing, to capturing stunning photographs. This workshop offers detailed tutoring on drone use with a drone specialist and a local guide with extensive drone experience.

Togeather, we’ll travel to the Icelandic Highlands and the South Coast. Photographing the unique Highland landscapes, hot springs, lava fields, waterfalls, colorful geothermal areas, and multiple locations with stunning braided rivers where the glacial rivers flow over the sand. Many have described the braided rivers as the reason for getting a drone!

This is a small group with a maximum of eight participants. This gives everyone plenty of space to fly their drone and one-on-one time with their instructor. We’ll travel in one of our custom 4×4 Sprinter vans. The truck will have a charging station so we can charge batteries on the go.

The Highlands are usually referred to as the central area of Iceland, located 400m above sea level, covering approximately 76% of the land’s surface area. Icelanders often refer to it as óbyggðir – or uninhabited country.
Roads accessing this area often open in late June and typically close at the beginning of October if the autumn is mild. This short window gives enthusiastic photographers only a few months a year to explore and enjoy the many breathtaking locations this area offers.
