Below you’ll find some of the projects I’ve done as JonfromIceland
Mercedes Benz AMG GT 2020
Was travelling in California in January 2020 when I was offered a project I couldn't reject. A friend of mine, Jacob was in contact with Mercedes Benz US and asked if I would be interested in shooting photos of one of their cars.
I extended my trip by one day, drove to Malibu... and this is the outcome.

Panorama Glass Lodge
When Covid 19 hit Iceland the company was facing the same problem as all other tourist related companies in Iceland… cancellations. I reached out to them and asked if we could work together and use the availability to our advantage.
Many beautiful visits later and this is the outcome.
These cozy cabins were trending among Icelanders this summer so business has been successful and waiting for the borders to open up for travellers.
The cabins are three in total, located on the west and south coast of Iceland, each equipped with an outside hot tub.

Directed, filmed and edited by me.

the Rift 2019 bikerace for RedBull
Filmed and photographed this extreme bikerace that took place up in the highlands of Iceland.
RedBull Iceland was one of the main sponsors and asked me to document the journey. I teamed up with my friends who drove with me 200 kilometers through the highlands following the bikers.
The landscape is remote, rugged and unpredictable as you can see in the video.
