Drone & Aerial Cinematography on All 7 Continents.

I’m a Los Angeles/NYC based commercial director specializing in drone and aerial cinematography for automotive, travel, hospitality, and luxury brands. FAA Part 107, EASA certified, NAA permitted, bonded and insured up to 2M.
I’ve flown shoots on all seven continents capturing some of the world’s most dynamic locations with precision and professional ease. Every aerial shoot begins with airspace checks, NOTAM review, location permissions, and on-site safety briefings.
I carry international coverage, follow local regulations, and maintain redundant flight plans for critical work to ensure seamless capture of absolutely stunning footage.

Drone & Aerial Cinematography FAQ

  • Yes. I’m FAA Part 107 certified in the U.S., EASA-licensed in Europe, and hold NAA permits where required. All operations are bonded and insured for international coverage, including restricted-airspace and night-flight endorsements.

  • I’ve flown on all seven continents, from Antarctica and the Australian Outback to the Alps and American Southwest. I manage local permits and airspace compliance for each region, so clients don’t have to navigate international regulations.

  • Yes, while I fly FPV drones for dynamic, high-speed shots I much more prefer stabilized cinema drones for controlled, cinematic movement that bring a rich, evolved production value to projects.

  • Most of my aerial work supports automotive, travel, hospitality, and luxury brands. From car launches and tourism campaigns to hotel showcases and documentary storytelling, I tailor drone footage to fit the tone and visual identity of each client.

  • Yes. I often deliver aerial plates, HDRI sky panoramas, and environment passes for post-production and VFX teams. Location scouting via drone is also available for pre-visualization or storyboarding.

  • Yes. I coordinate all necessary filings—FAA waivers, NOTAM checks, and local authority permits—before each flight. Clients receive documentation and proof of coverage before the shoot date.

  • Standard deliverables include graded ProRes masters, raw D-Log footage, or social-ready crops (9:16, 1:1, 4:5). I can also supply proxy edits, LUTs, or color-matched versions for ongoing campaigns.

  • Frequently. I’m comfortable operating as a solo one-man-band or integrating into full-scale productions with DPs, producers, or creative directors. My drone work is often part of larger commercial campaigns and branded documentaries.

  • Ideally two weeks in advance—some regions require flight or airspace authorizations that take time to process. For urgent shoots, I can often expedite clearances within 48 hours depending on location.

  • Budgets vary based on location, drone type, and complexity. Typical day rates start around $2,500 USD for full-service drone cinematography, including pilot, camera op, insurance, and post deliverables. You’ll get a detailed quote once I know the scope, location, and timeline.
