What we do
Five ways we put a camera where it counts
Each service has its own page with sample work and pricing. Start with what you need today.
Real Estate Video & Photo
Cinematic listing films plus aerial and ground stills that move homes faster. Our most-booked work: the tour buyers remember.
Photography
Full-frame ground photography: product, commercial, editorial, and portraits. Clean, sharp, print-ready.
Thermal Drone Search & Recovery
A thermal drone finds heat that the eye misses, day or night. Two ways clients use it: downed deer and game recovery for hunters and clubs, and lost pet recovery for families.
Land & Mapping
Property overviews, acreage tours, and stitched orthomosaic maps for land owners and managers. RTK-capable flights on request. Not stamped survey data; certified survey work goes to a licensed surveying partner.
Special Requests
Thermal roof and building scans, specialized aerial jobs, and one-off missions. Have something unusual? Ask.
Latest listing film
Waterfront home, Gloucester, VA
Glass-calm water, a private dock, and a renovated home, flown and filmed in one morning. This is what a 4AB listing package looks like: a cinematic film, drone aerials, and full-frame interiors as one color-matched set.
