Norway photographer/proposal tips
Hi All - Looking to propose on a Norway trip and looking for the following suggestions:
-Photographers (I am googling hard but can't seem to find any) - want someone to capture the moment! Sites or people who have decent prices would be welcome (Budget < 8600 NOK if possible, but open to what the market is)
-Really good romantic/scenic places to propose (preferably after an adventure since we both have a thirst for it): thinking Reine after a mountain/boating trek or during the Trolltunga trek (although getting a photographer here may be an issue).
Any ideas? For the record here's our itinerary (suggestions welcome as we are flexible! Feels like we may have too many days in Lofoten but I could be wrong)
Day 1 Bergen
Day 2 Norway in a Nutshell (Back to Bergen)
Day 3-4 Stavanger (Pulpit Rock) (Day 4 back to Bergen)
Day 5-6 Odda (Trolltunga sunset/sunrise tour)
Day 7-11 Lofoten (Day 11 or 12 fly back to Bergen)
Day 12 Bergen
Thanks in advance!

When? How are you travelling - public transport or hire car?You only have 5 days in Lofoten which is hardly too much. But I wonder if you have left enough time for the rest of the trip. For instance Bergen - Stavanger - Pulpit Rock - Bergen is normally 3 days - 2 days of travelling. Same for Trolltunga - you need three days - it's a day each way travelling from Bergen. It would make a lot more sense to travel directly to Odda from Pulpit rock - there is a bus in summer - rather than returning to Bergen.
You might consider a private guided tour on Trolltunga if you can find a guide willing to do the type of photography you want - http://trolltunga-active.com/

Thanks for the advice. Going latter half of June and planning to use public transport for the first half and rent a car to explore Lofoten. Honestly, it'd be ideal to go from Pulpit Rock to Odda (or even the other way around), but the buses I saw don't start until July 1st which poses a problem.
Thinking I may need to restructure this to be the following:
Day 1 Bergen
Day 2 Norway in a Nutshell (Back to Bergen)
Day 3-4 Stavanger (Pulpit Rock) (Day 4 back to Bergen)
Day 5 Bergen (Travel to Odda in the evening)
Day 6-7 Odda (Trolltunga sunset/sunrise tour, Back to Bergen)
Day 8-12 Lofoten (Day 12 back to Bergen)
Thoughts?

Stavanger from Bergen is a 5 1/2 hr bus journey. Pulpit rock from Stavanger is an 7 - 8 hr return trip by public transport and walking. Possible maybe if you stayed at the lodge.
Bit of an exhausting schedule. Where are you coming from?
