Martin Sammtleben

Martin is based in Reykjavik where he works as a photographer and graphic-/web designer. German-born Martin originally came to Iceland for a holiday fourteen years ago and stayed. Happiest wandering in the wilds of Iceland taking pictures; his enthusiasm for Iceland as a photographic hot spot remains undiminished; he still speaks passionately of “ …the vibrant colours, extreme light, contrasting landscape, lack of people and wandering around the biggest desert in Europe.”

Guests seem to enjoy the gentle, humorous and practical way that he willingly shares his extensive photographic knowledge. Martin speaks English, German and Icelandic fluently.
