Drone photographers fly drones above a location and capture videos or still photos of events, weddings, properties, construction sites, and/or attractions.
A drone photographer can help you stand out since birds-eye view photos are still quite a novelty for most people. Aerial photography can also capture a broader view, which is ideal for big landscapes, events, and large crowds of people.
Aerial photographers’ skills include drone piloting, drone maintenance, photography, videography, and editing.
Yes. Most of the laws limit flying distances and locations, and it’s also illegal to fly over and above people. Your photographer will be familiar with local laws and ensure they operate their drone within the law.
It usually depends on the services needed. Your aerial and drone photographer may charge more or less, depending on the type of photos you need, the location, the level of editing, and the total time spent on site.

What does an aerial and drone photographers do?

Aerial photographers are hired for a range of jobs, but most gigs are either for events or marketing promotions. Here’s what you can expect from some of the most common services offered by drone photographers:

Wedding drone photographer


Wedding drone photographers will start by checking with the bride and groom to find out what kind of footage they want to be captured. They may capture photos of the bride and groom on a hill, video footage of the wedding ceremony from above, or photos of the entire wedding party and guests. At your wedding, your drone photographer will set up their drone and use their controller to fly above the action, capturing photos and/or video as they go. They’ll consider the weather and light when choosing angles and heights to take the best photos of your wedding. Your aerial photographer will use a first-person view screen or goggles to monitor the footage while flying the drone to make sure they capture all the most important elements.


Event aerial and drone photographer

Weddings aren’t the only type of events that can benefit from a drone photographer. Many large outdoor events, festivals, and parties are captured from above. Drones are perfect for capturing the scale of the event, including all the people, stages, stalls, and attractions. Your photographer will use their controller to fly the drone above the event, capturing photos and/or video. They’ll use their first-person view goggles or screen to check that their camera is capturing all the right shots. After the event, they’ll edit the footage and deliver a polished finished product, suitable to share on social media or in marketing promotions.


Real estate drone photographer

If you’ve got a house for sale, a real estate drone photographer can help capture unique images that truly show the scale and context of your property. They’ll use their drone and camera to zoom out and show the surrounding properties and landscape. Some real estate drone photographers are also hired to take still aerial photos that are used in planning. In some cases, developers work with aerial photographers to capture photos that show the construction progress and that key milestones have been met. After the photos have been captured, your photographer will carefully edit the footage so that it’s ready to be used in your marketing, listings, and planning processes.


Marketing campaigns


You can hire a drone photographer to help capture still photos or video footage that can be used in your marketing campaigns. They can get new and interesting angles on your store, event, location, products, or services. Aerial photos and videos are also ideal for tourism campaigns, especially in beautiful or interesting surroundings. Your photographer will set up their equipment and use the controller to fly the drone into the right position, before capturing your footage. They’ll edit the raw footage to produce a finished product, or hand this over to you for further editing.

Photos of lights in Port Hedland - drone footage a bonus

$500

Port Hedland WA 6721, Australia

30th May 2025

We are a little solar lighting company competing with the big guys and we scored an important job up in Port Hedland with 41x turtle-friendly solar bollard lights and our own bigger solar lights, SOLANOVA x3 in a nearby car park. The lights are being installed now, to be finished by mid-May. There are a couple of things special about this installation - the first is these lights are solar, and they are the proper turtle-friendly wavelength (looks red/amber) because Port H is a turtle breeding and migration area and these lights represent a decision by council to invest in Australian-Made solar bollards to be installed to strike that balance between human use of an area with the least impact to the immediate ecosystem. The bigger lights around in the car park are also a wild-life friendly colour temperature at 2200K (called very warm white) as these are not in the direct path of the turtles but still want least impact. Attached is a photo the installer took for us. He's not a photographer - and there are obvious things in here that render the photo unable to be used for marketing, for example: - the shadow of the photographer in the foreground, - the starbursts on the lights distract from the subject and make it hard to see the actual light, - the lights don't quite "fill the photo"- as in, it feels busy on the eye while you work out what you are looking at, - that you can see the lights from the nearby toilet block and a street light in the background. What is good about the photo: - shows the light splay on the path and demonstrates the "no dark patches between light on the ground" consistent with ASNZS Pedestrian Compliant lighting. From our experience working with lighting, the best photos are either at dawn or just after they come on at dusk We would like a quote to do (open to ideas!): - a day and night photo of the solar bollards in the same position - A video of the lights coming on at night - drone footage of the row of lights
