“Magic workshop/retreat was absolutely incredible, magic and his team exceeded expectations with everything, accommodation, food, locations for photography, the masterclass presentations. He really went the extra mile for everybody that attended and created some memories I will never forget, from epic waterfalls, snowball fights. Seeing the northern lights and creating an incredible atmosphere for everyone who attended. I really can not fault the trip at all. Cheers magic. A truly epic experience for me” – @denhamdunnet

Shooting Days
Obviously, we’re going to spend 2 days shooting beautiful styled shoots – 2 different couples, multiple breathtaking sceneries, with plenty of time to craft your own shots! Shoots will be held on Tuesday and Thursday between 12 to 5pm, to get the most of the daylight.
You are going to come back home with an amazing destination portfolio!
Trip Day
Between our shoots and masterclasses, we’ll spend a day exploring Iceland together! Wednesday will be a day of pure relaxation, allowing you to take some deep breaths of Icelandic air and enjoy both iconic landmarks and hidden gems in the area.
I’ll still hold morning and evening masterclass sessions on that day, and throughout the day, I’ll be available to answer your questions and 1 on 1’s!

“I had an incredible time with Magic at his workshop! Getting exposed to the intense 100mph winds and rain, learning how to work in those conditions (AND LEARNING I LOVE IT) is a workshop experience like no other! When we weren’t shooting in epic locations, we were learning, laughing and eating (or in the hotpot)! Magic and his team were accommodating of every attendees needs. His amazing parter had morning mediation and Qigong. Magic is full of energy and completely transparent, sharing all of the information rattling around his head from early morning to late into the night! I especially loved the image critiques from our shoots. Ping-pong tournaments, group portrait sessions, unpredictable Icelandic weather, northern lights and EPIC photo styled shoots -> no other workshop offers you the vibes like Magic. – @sarahbabcockstudio
