Aerial Photography I love when the end of a job coincides with the sunset! I got this beautiful display over the Peak District on my way home from doing the aerial filming for a promo video in Sheffield.
Aerial Photography The new regulations regarding small unmanned aircraft in UK airspace has opened doors for many flights that were previously only possible under exemptions and authorisations, especially with lighter aircraft. The Mini 2 is a fantastic tool that I am delighted to add to the toolbox.
Aerial Photography The Boyne Bridge, a stunning, cable-stayed bridge spanning the River Boyne on the county borders of Louth & Meath in Ireland was one of my main motivators for getting my first drone! Every time I drove up the M1, I wished I could get an aerial photo of it.
My main work at the time took me out of Ireland for most of the year, but finally, in 2019, I got my shots! I hope you enjoy them as much as I do!

Aerial Photography Thanks so much for the kind words Katie! Congratulations to you both.
Aerial Photography I had the absolute pleasure of meeting Andy, one of the volunteers keeping Magpie Mill beautiful and safe. He was busy giving up his time to fix a grill on one of the mine-shafts that had been vandalised but was still more than happy to give up even more of his time to explain the fascinating history behind the best surviving example of a 19th-century lead mine in Derbyshire to me.

Aerial Photography As much as the branding suggests that this operation is one man and his drone, many missions have huge involvement from a lot of other parties – observers, camera operators, marshals etc. Let me explain with a few examples. These are just hypothetical scenarios and the actual number of people required will be discovered during the initial site survey.
