I began flying drones in 2010, when Parrot released one of the first recreational drones: the Parrot AR. I then advanced to the DJI Phantom 1, and now fly the DJI Phantom 4 Pro. All told, I have nearly ten years experience flying drones. Prior to 2010, and in my youth, I flew fixed-wing free flight model aircraft.

First, I expect no payment until you are satisfied with your photographs and videos. Once satisfied, you can then process a payment online with your credit card on our Airworks Imagery website. Click here to make a payment.

I’ll use whatever method works best for you. The high-resolution photos and videos are too big to e-mail, of course, but I can use Google Drive or DropBox to deliver your products.

Of course! But to be honest, my passion and my investment has been in aerial photography. I use the DJI Osmo+ camera for interior stills and videos. This is a high-quality, gimbal mounted camera, like the sensor on my drone. If you have a particularly challenging interior, or one that’s not well lit and requires supplemental lighting, then I’d recommend hiring a professional photographer with the necessary lighting equipment. In most cases, though, I’m happy to provide interior stills and videos.

Pictures are often delivered the same day. Depending on the amount of post-production needed or requested, videos are usually delivered either same-day or next-day.

There are no separate travel charges for jobs in the Lake Chelan area (Entiat / Orondo to Pateros). Contact me for work outside this area. The nature of your job will determine any additional travel expenses.

No, not normally – for that, one needs to be a licensed surveyor in Washington state. The orthomosaic images I produce are more for marketing and management / planning purposes. They still have great relative accuracy (point-to-point accuracy supported by image resolution down to the half-inch-per-pixel range), but unguaranteed absolute accuracy. “Survey quality maps” would require me to engage the services of a licensed surveyor to set what are known as “Ground Control Points” to establish absolute accuracy. Let me know if this is the accuracy you need.

Certainly, if what you need is a large scale orthomosaic photograph of your land in the normal visual range of colors. Areas over 50 acres, or which require specialized near-infrared sensors to gauge plant health requires different drones and sensors than what I currently have. Please let me know if you have a recurrent need for this kind of agricultural support, and we can talk about acquiring the appropriate equipment.
