Aerial Photography Service
There are several ways of taking aerial photographs depending upon needs, location and budget. So why choose us?
- We can get photos from angles that are impossible or contrived using other methods (see table below)
- A Draganflyer X6 is electric powered so it is virtually silent whilst flying and there are no emissions compared to gas' powered craft
- Rapid deployment. We can be airborne within 10-15 minutes of arrival
- Fully Trained staff giving you faith in our skills and integrity. Our Photo Pilots carry various Certificates between them should you need them such as CRB checking and CSCS card-carriers. Just ask should this be a requirement and we will ensure that your Pilot will have the relevant paperwork that you need.
- Full third party Liability insurance
- We want you to be pleased with your results, so are very flexible in accommodating your needs whilst on site. (Subject to staying safe, of course)
- We are available at short notice for those 'needed by yesterday' jobs.

Why a Draganflyer X6 is better |
|---|---|
Helicopter or fixed-wing aeroplane (with pilot and photographer) |
The cost of an X6 is a fraction of the cost of a full size craft |
Tethered balloons and kites |
The tether point is determined by wind direction which could change, the point might not be accessible or on third party land. We can take off from pretty much anywhere and fly to position If you are considering using a tethered craft, look at their portfolio and look at the angles that you want. Why compromise on angles when you can get whatever you want with a Draganflyer? |
Fixed masts |
To get a shot at a different angle, the mast needs to be retracted and re deployed each time. We just fly there! If you are considering using a mast, look at their portfolio and look at the angles that you want. Why compromise on angles when you can get whatever you want with a Draganflyer? |
Remote Controlled aeroplanes and helicopters |
Helicopters are inherently unstable and so need more concentration to fly. A Draganflyer, once in position, can be left with no hands on the controls as onboard GPS and barometric height sensors keep it in one place |
Draganflyer X6 Remote controlled UAV |
Fast deployment (< 15mins) |
Remember
- If it's tethered or a ground-based fixed mast, then you will always be limited in the angles that you can take photographs from and the images may appear contrived or distorted as a consequence.
- Only an unmanned UAV can be deployed anywhere that there is some airspace without restriction saving you time, money and actually getting the photographs that you want at the angles that you want. Don't be persuaded otherwise!
We use a Draganflyer X6 Remote controlled UAV made by Draganfly Innovations Inc. and are based in Berkshire and Bristol with Partners in Telford and in Liverpool, allowing us to easily cover the UK. We are also available for work across the world - subject to local flying and security regulations. Discounts apply for Barbados, the Maldives or, in fact, anywhere hot with a nice beach.
Our Photo-Pilots are trained on the aircraft and Certified. Whilst we do not currently provide a guaranteed 24x7x365 coverage, if we are available, we can be mobilised at very short notice. Call us now for that 'needed by yesterday' job.

Build your own Aerial photography kit
If you fancy having a go yourself, you can get decent lightweight cameras with seasonable resolution. These can be strapped to a Remote Controlled Helicopter and or aeroplane and you can generate your own pictures. Click on the adverts on the right to find a craft suitable for your needs. What starts out as a hobby can develop into a way of making some extra cash. Play safe, however and make sure that the model that you choose can easily cope with a payload, be fluent in flying your craft and, if necessary, employ a spotter to keep the area safe and possibly to man the camera via a remote link.
