High end aerial photography is one of my specialties and I offer two options to obtain the shots you need, I am a FAA licensed drone pilot and have access to an airplane.

Oblique aerials, photos taken at an angle, are often the most desirable and difficult to accomplish from a conventional airplane. With a drone, producing a perfect oblique photo is more accessible and less costly than an airplane. Taking one exterior shot of a high end home is now cost effective when in the past you would need to cover the costs of the photographer, pilot and airplane expenses.

The drone offers a unique vantage point for many common scenarios. Employees in front of a building, a sports team on a field, home and business exteriors, outdoor lot inventory, events and more.

Often there is no supplement for a conventional airplane in the hands of a every capable pilot and photographer. I have one pilot I choose to fly with, who flies Boeing 777s internationally and can handle a plane with extreme precision. If we need to be over one spot and take a series of images we can handle it, which is no easy task and takes hours of practice. Controlled airspace, large cities, both no problem. We fly a Cessna 172 with the window open, which makes a great aerial platform. I have tried many airplanes and a few helicopters and I am always happy to be in the Cessna to get the job done. Additional aerial photos are available in the Portfolio section.
