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.

Please include the resolution you can provide and if you are licensed. The image has a red line that indicates the area where I need photos and shows the height, it's 6 levels above ground.

Eden did a fantastic job. Turned up on time, got to work immediately. Worked collaboratively with me to ensure we got exactly the shots we needed. The quality and resolution of his camera shots are stunning. His drone equipment and skills are amazing, he was able to fly in a confined space, the drone got attacked by birds but was still able to shoot the exact footage I needed. A very positive experience and I highly recommend Eden.
