Who I help

Drone Video, Photography & Surveys for

  • Construction progress & stakeholder updates
  • Property marketing & developers
  • Local authority & infrastructure
  • Corporate & brand films

Capture wide site overviews and zoomed detail in a single shoot via my three-lens drone system.

I create creative video sequences that help tell the story, greatly enhancing the viewer experience.

For surveys, I capture a range of high resolution photographs – wide angle and zoomed in – along with 6k video footage to highlight the structure or object.

Professional, Legal Drone Operations

Commercial drone work in the UK still requires proper aviation insurance, legal compliance and safe operational planning — regardless of drone size.

While many entry-level drone operators use sub-250g drones such as the DJI Mini series under the Open Category are unaware that carrying out paid drone work, or work for their own business without compliant commercial insurance breaches Civil Aviation Authority aviation regulations.

As a professional drone operator, I provide:

➡ CAA authorised drone operations

➡ GVC Certification in the Specific category

➡ Operational Authorisation

➡ A2 CofC Qualification

➡ EC785/2004 compliant commercial insurance

➡ Valid Operator and Flyer ID

➡ Professional risk assessments & flight planning

➡ Legally required maintenance schedules

I recently worked with Shaun Lawson on the production of a corporate video for Evander. Shaun was a pleasure to work with – very accommodating, put forward recommendations based on our requirements and made everyone who was filmed feel at ease.

The end result was a top quality and professional video, we’ve received some really positive feedback from colleagues across the business.
