SheClicks Iceland February 2026
Get ready for an adventure of a lifetime!
Iceland has long been one of the most requested locations for a SheClicks photography trip, so Emily Endean and I have decided it's time to make it happen.
We’re inviting female photographers to join us for an unforgettable 7-day immersive photography trip set in Iceland’s stunning landscapes. Running from 20th to 26th February 2026, this experience combines expert-led tuition with the camaraderie of like-minded women who share your passion for photography.
Iceland has plenty of epic scenes such is this view of Vestrahorn mountain.
Expect a journey that blends epic landscapes with creative exploration. From giant waterfalls and black lava fields to vibrant local culture, you'll be inspired to capture the beauty of Iceland through your lens while developing your unique artistic style.
We’ll be staying in a mix of 3- and 4-star hotels across six nights, with shared twin accommodation and a limited number of single rooms are available for an additional fee. Each day will bring new scenes and photo opportunities, from icy vistas to rugged coastlines, as we travel and shoot together in a small, supportive group of 7 to 14 women.
This trip is designed to help you grow in confidence and skill, whether you’re just getting started or already experienced. You’ll receive expert guidance from both Emily and me, with plenty of time to put techniques into practice and explore your creativity. Most importantly, you’ll be surrounded by a community of like-minded women in a supportive and inspiring environment.
