Hi there!
Thank you for showing interest in me and my work.
To me photography is a way to preserve your story so you and future generations can relive it whenever. It´s a way to freeze a moment in time that will never come back but is preserved forever.
I´m Telma
an Icelandic photographer and journalist based in Reykjavík.
I am a cozy person who finds happiness in the little things. Like having an extra minute to sip my morning coffee, going on a spontaneous day trip or just simply feeling the sun on my face.
For as long as I can remember I´ve loved telling stories. I was a creative and talkative kid, writing poetry and novels and dreaming of becoming an actress. But.. when I discovered photography something just clicked (hehe).
It became my biggest hobby and the way photography and writing makes me feel has probably been one of the only constants in my life so far.
In 2016 I wondered: why not make my biggest passion into my career? It didn´t go smoothly from day one but with a lot of hard work, trust and believe from a lot of amazing people:
here I am!
Thank you for stopping by x
Fun facts
01.
I´ve lived in three different countries and speak Icelandic, Dutch, English and even some rusty Danish. I´m a total language nerd and have a degree in Icelandic linguistics.

Cooking (and just food in general) is a big hobby of mine. So it probably doesn´t come as a surprise that I really enjoy food-photography. One of my biggest dreams is to one day photograph a cookbook!

What makes me the happiest is good coffee, eating great food, nature and the Icelandic pools. Writing is also something I love doing. If you´re curious about my life and thoughts? Head over to the blog!

Hygge is not only my favorite word but my way of living. I want to give others the feeling of hygge through my photography and with a calm and cozy energy during my shoots.
KIND WORDS
Telma, thank you so much for the beautiful photos. I am so happy with them! They turned out beautifully. You are very talented. You captured the most beautiful time of my life. I am really grateful.
