photographer from Iceland, work for a newspaper called Fréttablaðið and do some freelance jobs along side my 9-5. Love the music scene here in Iceland and love being able to photograph it.
Got 2 young kids, a son, Högni Alvar and a daughter, Vigdís Elfur.
mmmm what else, I'm currently using a canon 1d mark III along with various lenses and a flash.
sometimes I go to school in Viborg, Denmark at the Medieskolerne in Viborg

"Where do I start talking about this dude. His imagination and way of thinking is so great that a good photo shot for me, often begins with getting some inspiration from him. Not to steal or copycat, but to remind of how it's possible to create a masterpiece in 1001 different ways.
His mind is one of a true artist and I always look forward to browsing through his photos to see what he has been up to."27th March, 2007

"Hörður is a truly versatile photographer, producing exception images in the fields of photojournalism & street photography, portraiture, still life and landscape. His style is distinctive yet consistent in quality. With an eye for colour and composition (and red hair), he's a very cool guy!"

"Hördur has been a great source of inspiration for me.
Not that I would ever try to copy his style (would be impossible) but the playful view he has to his subjects is amazing and the angles and framings are unbeatable.
I allways look forward to seeing what he comes up with next."19th January, 2007

Audunn says:
"Hörður is a picture maker, not a picture taker. His imagination when creating images (especially portraits) seems endless. He has his unique style in composing images, whether doccumenting everyday life, making portraits, photographing concerts or shooting sports, all his photos have this unique touch that Hörður puts into them. He is extremly inspirational for anyone interested in becoming a photographer, or just people who enjoys beautiful photos."

"Hordur is amazing photographer. He uses color in a great way. and his color portraits are his and no others with this special style I can not describe better than color color color. His B&W work is also incredible and are inspiring for everyone that is into photography. I think Hordur will be famous for his photography one day and the world will love him for the beautiful pictures he makes."
