About Fjordly

Fjordly, tagline *Norway Photography Experiences*, is a booking platform for professional photoshoots in Norway. It connects people who want to be photographed, whether travelling, on a cruise or living in the country, with independent photographers who work locally.

Fjordly does not sell fixed packages from a shop. Each request is checked individually against the photographers who suit the date, the place and the type of session, and the client receives a proposal to accept or decline. Nothing is booked or paid until the client accepts it.

Fjordly operates across Norway, in the cities, along the fjords and north of the Arctic Circle. The main bases are Oslo, Bergen, Stavanger, Ålesund, Trondheim, Kristiansand and Tromsø.

From these bases, sessions reach the destinations around them: the Geirangerfjord, the Aurlandsfjord and Nærøyfjord around Flåm, the Lysefjord below Preikestolen, and the islands of Lofoten. Distances are long and many routes include a ferry, so the proposal always states where the session starts and how the photographer gets there. The full list is on the locations page.

Fjordly arranges the following types of session, each with a starting price:

• Couple photoshoot, from NOK 3,900
• Proposal photography, from NOK 6,500
• Proposal photo and video, from NOK 8,900
• Northern lights photoshoot, from NOK 7,900
• Engagement photography, from NOK 3,900
• Honeymoon photography, from NOK 6,500
• Family photoshoot, from NOK 4,500
• Solo traveller photoshoot, from NOK 2,500
• Elopement photography, from NOK 12,000
• Wedding photography, from NOK 25,000
• Norway photo tour, from NOK 12,000
• Full-day photography experience, from NOK 25,000

An overview of all session types is on the services page. Guides for the most requested ones are on the pages for proposals, couples, honeymoons and families in Norway.

Sessions in the fjord and Arctic destinations (Geiranger, Flåm, Preikestolen, Tromsø and Lofoten) start from the fjord & Arctic rate of NOK 6,500, because they involve more travel and planning around daylight.

Booking through Fjordly follows four steps:

1. The client sends a free, no-obligation availability request with the date, the place and the type of shoot.
2. Fjordly checks which suitable photographers are free and replies personally.
3. The client receives a proposal naming the photographer, the package and the price.
4. The booking is confirmed when the client accepts the proposal. Payment terms, cancellation terms, weather arrangements and the delivery time are stated in the proposal.

Nothing is reserved or charged before the proposal is accepted. Answers to common questions are on the FAQ page.

The photographers are independent professionals, not employees of Fjordly. Each one is reviewed before joining, on five criteria:

• their portfolio;
• their experience with the type of session;
• the languages they speak;
• their knowledge of the places they work in;
• their reliability.

Each photographer has a profile on the photographers page showing their work and languages. Photographers who want to work with Fjordly can apply through the page for photographers.

Every price on Fjordly is a starting price in Norwegian kroner (NOK). Sessions start from NOK 2,500 for an express shoot of about 30 minutes and from NOK 3,900 for a classic one-hour session. Any shoot in a fjord or Arctic location, such as Geiranger, Preikestolen, Lofoten or Tromsø, starts from NOK 6,500.

The final price depends on the photographer, the place, the date, the time of day, the duration and add-ons such as video, drone footage, an extra hour, a weekend date, a sunrise, sunset or aurora slot, or travel by car and ferry. Each photographer sets their own package and price at or above the platform's starting prices, and the proposal states the exact figure before the client commits. All starting prices are listed on the pricing page, and what a photographer costs in Norway explains what moves them.

The Fjordly website is in English. Requests can be written in English, Norwegian or German. The languages each photographer speaks vary and are shown on their profile. A client who needs a particular language for the session can say so in the request.

The simplest way to reach Fjordly is the availability request form. It is free and without obligation, and it can also be used for questions before booking. Fjordly replies personally.
