2022
Iceland Highlands Workshop with Nigel Danson – SOLD OUT
This is a unique trip to the southern highlands of Iceland. The central highlands are a desolate and otherworldly area, which is sometimes challenging to traverse. We will be visiting vast black sand deserts, lush green mountains, crater lakes and much more. These are some of the lesser visited areas in Iceland.
Dates: 10/08/2022 – 16/08/22 (SOLD OUT)
Iceland Highlands in Summer with Andy Mumford – SOLD OUT
In a country of truly amazing landscapes the Icelandic highlands offer perhaps the most incredible scenery of all. The vast interior of this beautiful country has some of the most diverse and jaw-dropping landscapes imaginable. Surrounded by glaciers, this is an area of black sand deserts, volcanic peaks and mountains of every colour imaginable, from the vivid green moss covered hills of the Hvanngil and Mælifellssandur, to the deep oranges and red rhyolite valleys of Landmannalaugar and Kerlingarfjöll. Crater lakes like Langisjór and Hnausapollur, lava fields and waterfalls, landscapes that change every few kilometres, there is simply so much to see in the highlands.
Dates: 27/08/22 – 04/09/22 (SOLD OUT)
Classic & Hidden Gems South Coast with Linda Bergmann
This photography workshop will take us along the South Coast of Iceland, to photograph some truly majestic landscape. We will mix classics like waterfalls, canyons and the glacier lagoon with hidden gems. Of course, we’ll also hunt down some Northern Lights together. We’ll stay in selected hotels, catch sunrises & sunsets and end the week with a dinner in Linda’s cabin.
Dates: 24/10/2022 – 31/10/2022 (limited seats)
2023
Iceland in Winter with Andy Mumford – SOLD OUT
It’s the kind of trip where you can’t fail to be inspired by the epic nature of the scenery, and in winter, with the landscape blanketed in white snow, the country is even more breath-taking. There’s an almost monochromatic nature to the landscape with smooth white snowscapes interrupted by black volcanic rocks or black sand and almost every where you look the view is ripe with photographic possibilities.
Dates: 11/03/2023 – 19/03/2023 (SOLD OUT)
Greenland in Winter with Andy Mumford – SOLD OUT
Join myself and Andy Mumford on a photography expedition exploring Greenland’s pristine ice fields and icebergs. Greenland is a place that should be on every landscape photographers list, an utterly unique destination with the kind of scenery that you can only see here. A trip here is a once-in-a-lifetime experience and a chance to witness nature at it’s most raw and elemental in a place that really feels like you’re at the edges of the earth.
Dates: 21/03/2023 – 25/03/2023 (SOLD OUT)
Foxes & Puffins in Hornstrandir
A unique sailboat photography workshop to the very remote Hornstrandir Nature Reserve in the northwestern corner of Iceland. This area is one of the most remote places in Iceland and is the habitat to many bird species as well as Arctic Foxes. During this workshop, we will focus on photographing wildlife, while also exploring some of the dramatic landscape Hornstrandir has to offer. Our base of operation is the Aurora, a previous racing yacht.
Dates: 30/06/2023 – 05/06/2023 (limited seats)

Private Day Tours
As a photographer and guide, I love being outdoors and showing people around. Therefore, I started offering custom private guided day tours, leaving from Reykjavík. The focus of these day tours can be photography when desired.
During such a day tour, I will be your (photography) guide for an entire day, bringing you to less frequented locations and explaining how I tackle photographing these locations.

Vuur en IJs / Fire and Ice (CC Asse in Belgium)
Jeroen documenteert vanuit zijn thuisbasis in IJsland nog steeds even gepassioneerd de pure schoonheid die de rauwe natuur rond en boven de poolcirkel. Met zijn nieuwe tentoonstelling ‘Vuur en IJs’ schetst hij een fotografisch beeld van de extremen die IJsland zo uniek maken. Hij neemt je mee op een visuele ontdekkingsreis langs de kristalblauwe gletsjers, door de ongerepte hooglanden naar de nieuwste, nog-steeds-gloeiende, landschappen. ‘Vuur en IJs’ toont een woeste, levende en adembenemende natuur die door de elementen altijd in beweging is.
From his home base in Iceland, Jeroen still passionately documents the pure beauty of the raw nature around and above the Arctic Circle. With his new exhibition ‘Fire and Ice’ he paints a photographic picture of the extremes that make Iceland so unique. He takes you on a visual journey along the crystal blue glaciers, through the pristine highlands to the newest, still-glowing, landscapes. ‘Fire and Ice’ shows a wild, living and breathtaking nature that is always in motion due to the elements.
Data / Dates:
- Opening Night: Wednesday October 19th 2022

Boekvoorstelling ‘New Earth’ (CC Asse in Belgium)
Assenaar Jeroen verhuisde 6 jaar geleden naar IJsland. Daar bouwde hij niet alleen een nieuw leven op maar maakte hij ook een complete carrière-switch naar natuurfotograaf en gids. Als fotograaf legt hij de extreme contrasten vast die in de ongerepte IJslandse natuur te vinden zijn. Vorig jaar kreeg hij de unieke kans om een vulkanische uitbarsting van zeer dichtbij mee te maken. Met 10 kilo fotomateriaal op de rug, bezocht hij het kersverse landschap-in-wording maar liefst 44 keer. Dat liet zo een overweldigende indruk na dat hij er een boek over schreef. Met ‘New Earth’ vertelt Jeroen een persoonlijk, ervarings- en fotografisch-gericht verhaal over één van de indrukwekkendste natuurfenomenen die hij heeft mogen fotograferen. Wat bewoog Jeroen ertoe om alles achter te laten? Hoe verging het hem tijdens het documenteren van een uitbarsting en welke indruk liet dit na? Kom het ontdekken op de boekvoorstelling van ‘New Earth’.
