The drone team captured amazing footage of our Audi shoot in action at Lime Rock Park as the Filmotechnic Porsche Cayenne camera car was racing around the track along side the Audi RS models. Fun day and couldn't be happier with the final product.

We did a hard project together. Even do we had some ups and downs we were able to come with a mutual understanding that served all sides.

First rate experience. These are dedicated professionals with vision plus a joy to work with. They take on new assignments with enthusiasm and serious enterprise. In our case, they visited the grounds first for a thorough survey, then returned on an ideal weather day for a photo shoot done with precision, sensitivity and wonderful storytelling. Just what we were looking for. No surprises save for the most satisfying result.

THE PAST

PhotoFlight Aerial Media has been using traditional aircraft to offer premium aerial photography services for over two decades. At the early onset of the UAS industry, we adopted UAS/drone technology to expand our product portfolio and list of partners and clients benefiting from our knowledge of the UAS tech. We are proud of our heritage and our ability to continue evolving with UAS technology, our markets, and the industry.

THE FUTURE

Our mission is to grow our company by providing high quality and value drone services to clients and partners in various industries, and continue to be one of the leaders and trusted voices of the UAS industry. We continue to learn, explore, and push the boundaries of what's possible, because we understand that what was exceptional yesterday may be great today, but would not be enough tomorrow.

THE PRESENT

In 2016, PhotoFlight Aerial Media has merged with two well established drone service providers to create one of the largest UAS companies in the US. This has proven to be a winning strategy, as it allows us to provide our partners with more specialized services, cost efficient UAS solutions, expand into new markets, and successfully navigate the ever evolving legal and regulatory environment surrounding drones. Our partners benefit from dealing with larger, robust, and dependable organization with experts dedicated to each aspect of our business.
