Drone Photography Tips

There are many reasons why a nature and landscape photographer might want to enter the world of drone photography.  This is especially true as technology advances and prices are more affordable. Drone photography allows us to go where we normally could not go. It enables vantages points which were near impossible before. They are portable and lightweight. And most importantly, flying an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) is fun. It’s the perfect toy for adults. Flying brings new discoveries every day, and it’s a different variety of fun compared to shooting with a regular DSLR or mirrorless camera.  Moreover, aerial images can add variety to your photography portfolio. If you are thinking of crossing into the drone photography world, let our professional photographers help guide your flight path.

In addition, they will offer flying advice and thoughts on how to maximize battery life.  They will explain the differences with drone cameras and the challenges of photographing from the air to maintain good image quality.
