Kari Bjorn is an Icelandic destination wedding and elopement photographer, currently based in Fayetteville, Arkansas and available in North/Central America, The Caribbean, and Europe.
I get it, you’re not the type of couple to book the boring venue two of your friends already got married at and have everybody over for yet another standard wedding day. Also! Who wants to pay for your dads’ coworker’s meals when you can ditch that and plan an adventure elopement!
Get in touch to make that happen!
I grew up in Iceland and spent my childhood traveling the country with my family and friends. I moved abroad in my early 20s after going to culinary school and having a short career as a chef and have now lived in 11 places on 3 continents in the last 15 years. It’s been a fun ride 🙂
I am ordained!
Arkansas is pretty chill when it comes to weddings and elopements. You don’t need witnesses and I am ordained and certified to perform wedding ceremonies in the entire state. What this means for you is that you don’t have to hire an officiant if you don’t want to. If you’d rather have a super intimate vow ceremony with your partner — I can legally sign your license.
As a photographer, I studied photography at Parsons School of Design and have worked in settings that range from the Vanity Fair Oscars Party to capturing the Icelandic National Football Team preparing for the 2018 Fifa World Cup. I’ve walked on glaciers and been yelled at by Rihanna (woops😬) — not on the same shoot though!
For the past 4 years, I’ve transitioned to photographing more destination weddings and elopements, especially after my wife and I eloped ourselves. I travel frequently around my home base and am available to capture your adventure elopement!
