About Your Instructor
Ása Steinars
Nature videographer
Iceland
"Go fly, and have fun!"
Ása is a nature photographer, videographer, drone flyer, and adventure content creator from Iceland.
She started creating very early and was photographing since being a kid of 10-11 years old. She grew up in the north, surrounded by extreme landscapes and forever-changing weather. It has given her a tight bond to nature and its forces.
She is happiest when outdoor, exploring, and taking on new challenges and would never enjoy life working from an office. Her lifestyle is built around adventures, where the industry lacks women within the niche.
Whenever she travels, skies, or hikes mountains, she is creating with a camera in hand.
She also helped build Iceland’s biggest marketing agency which gives her a great understanding of what clients need.
