Helicopter Aerial Photography

Helicopter Based Photography

  • Helicopter based aerial photography provides a perfect mid to low altitude view for any type of project.
  • More costly, but able to use the highest resolution 51 megapixel DSLR cameras and telephoto lenses for the best aerial shots possible.
  • Due to the speed of the aircraft, helicopters are a cost effective option for covering many projects across a large area.
  • Hire a photographer for aerial photography in congested urban areas or for projects located within busy airspace where drones and fixed wing aircraft are not as effective. 
  • Ability to get waivers for aerial flights inside the SFRA (Special Flight Rules Area) around Washington DC.
  • Contact our affordable photographer for your aerial photography needs. Jobs start at $600 per hour.

 Drone Photography

DJI Inspire 2 Drone

  • Our drone photographer provides a low-altitude perspective (below 400')  that often can't be achieved from a full-size aircraft.
  • More affordable than full-size helicopters, yet able to get much lower than fixed wing aircraft.
  • We fly most projects with our professional 21 megapixel DJI Inspire 2 Quadcopter with a Zenmuse X5S Camera and varying lenses depending on the need of the job.
  • FAA Part 107 compliant with a Remote Pilot Airman Certificate.
  • Licensed and Insured for commercial drone photography.
  • Unable to perform drone photography within 15 miles of Washington DC.
  • Drone photography jobs start at $200 per hour.

Fixed Wing Aerial Photography

Fixed Wing

  • Fixed Wing Aerial Photography is more affordable than using a helicopter yet can go much higher than drones for high altitude projects such as real estate, commercial development, large highway projects, bridges etc.
  • Perfect for wide angle aerial photos covering large areas of land.
  • While you can't go as low or slow as a helicopter, you can still capture very nice photos from fixed wing aircraft using telephoto lenses and 51 megapixel DLSR cameras, so fixed wing is a great affordable option for a wide range of photography needs.
  • Fixed-wing aerial photography jobs start at $350 per location.
