What we shoot from the air

Construction Progress Documentation

Track your project from groundbreaking to ribbon-cutting. Regular aerial documentation gives owners, investors, and stakeholders a clear view of progress that ground-level photos simply can't provide. We work with contractors and developers across West Michigan to create consistent, professional progress documentation that keeps everyone informed and your project portfolio looking its best.

Real Estate & Property

First impressions sell properties. Aerial photography shows scale, surroundings, and context that no ground-level shot can — whether it's a commercial property, a multi-unit development, or a large residential listing. Video walkthroughs that combine drone footage with interior shots create a complete picture that moves buyers faster.

Corporate Facility Overviews

Show your operation at scale. Whether you're a manufacturer, a logistics company, or a large campus-based organization, aerial photography communicates the scope of your work in a way that resonates with clients, partners, and recruits. These images perform exceptionally well in pitch decks, annual reports, and facility marketing materials.

Events

Capture the full picture. From outdoor festivals and corporate gatherings to groundbreaking ceremonies and ribbon cuttings, aerial coverage adds a dimension of scale and energy to event documentation that ground photographers can't replicate. Used well, aerial event footage becomes the highlight reel that makes everyone realize how big the moment actually was

Why It Matters That We're Part 107 Certified

Flying a drone commercially without FAA Part 107 certification isn't just technically illegal — it puts your project and your organization at risk. Part 107 certification means we've passed the FAA's aeronautical knowledge test, understand airspace regulations, and operate legally in commercial environments.

What that means for you: no liability exposure, no coverage headaches, and a professional who knows how to navigate airspace restrictions, coordinate with airports when necessary, and fly safely in complex environments. If you're hiring a drone operator for commercial work, Part 107 isn't a nice-to-have. It's a requirement.

good questions about aerial work

Do I need special permits for drone work on my property?
It depends on the location and airspace class. We handle all of this during pre-flight planning — if waivers or notifications are required, we take care of them.
Can you fly in winter or bad weather?
We monitor conditions carefully and reschedule if weather creates safety or quality concerns. Cold weather alone isn't a problem — wind, precipitation, and visibility are the factors that matter.
How is aerial footage delivered?
Photos are delivered as high-resolution JPGs. Video is delivered as edited MP4 files in the resolution and format that works for your intended use.
Can drone footage be combined with ground-level photography or video?
Absolutely — and it's often the best approach. Combined aerial and ground coverage gives you a complete visual story, especially for real estate, events, and facility documentation.
