Hey, I'm Mads Peter Iversen, a Denmark-based photographer obsessed with capturing landscapes - I live and breath it!

My photography journey exploded back in '11, and I've been a full-time landscape shooter since '16. Fun fact: I'm educated schoolteacher with a Master's in educational philosophy and been a gymnastics coach for 17 years – that passion for sharing knowledge definitely spills into my work now.

While I've dabbled in headshots and commercial gigs, my heart truly belongs to crafting fine art landscape photos. You'll also find me geeking out about landscape photography on my YouTube channel, where I break down the techniques and ideas behind the shots. My interest for video editing go way back to '02, so visual storytelling is a big part of who I am.

Inspiration hits me everywhere, but I'm especially drawn to the raw, epic beauty of the Atlantic countries like Iceland, the Faroes, and Norway, balanced by the serene, soft, almost dreamlike vibes of forests and open landscapes in Denmark, the British Isles and Italy.

Growing up in the 90's and 00's, my creative lens is definitely filtered through the popculture of those decades. Action films like Armageddon and Batman, the fantasy worlds of Lord of the Rings, Game of Thrones and Avatar, and the immersive PC games of Warcraft and Diablo all have a huge influence on my work. You'll see those cinematic vibes throughout my work. And then, there's that cool Scandinavian minimalism that sneaks in every now and then – check my YouTube and galleries if you're curious what that looks like!

For me, it's all about being out in nature and capturing the full spectrum of landscapes. One day it might be a magical Milky Way shot, the next an epic vista, or a calm, atmospheric forest scene. I love playing with the entire emotional range, from peaceful serenity to dramatic awe.

I'm also a firm believer that the shot isn't finished in-camera. Editing is where the magic truly happens, where the image comes alive and the mood I felt in the moment takes its final form.

Since education is at the core of what I do, you'll find tons of insights and resources on composition, light and post-processing here on my website and via my YouTube channel to help you level up your own landscape photography. My goal isn't to tell you how to shoot, but to equip you with the tools and perspectives you need to become an independent and expressive artist.
