I'd long had the Faroe Islands in the back of my mind as an otherworldly destination. We need to shoot in June, and as it happens, temperatures remain relatively low in the Faroes, while daylight hours are at their longest. In short: autumnal weather to suit the looks, but with plenty of light. And with landscapes of epic proportions, broken up by dramatic fjords, sea stacks, waterfalls, and lagoons, it seemed like the perfect place.
