Drone photography is becoming increasingly popular. With the advent of drones, aerial photography is now an almost unavoidable complement to corporate communication, whether in print or online.
Aerial photos bring an extra dimension to any photo story, whether on location in industry, to give an overview of the size of a site and its integration into the environment, or for nature documentaries, without forgetting of course the myriad other types of photo and video production that can benefit from this technology.

Architectural photography is a distinct type of photography within the broader field of photography, requiring a special set of skills and a keen eye for detail. Unlike other photographic subjects such as portraiture or landscapes, architectural photography requires a special approach. The photographer must come to grips with the convergence of art and technical expertise to create shots that enhance the form of the structure and convey its essence.
Architectural photography is fundamentally about treating architecture as an art form. Our photographers will look for unique angles, perspectives, and way to compose the shot, such that it will highlight the design elements, lines, and patterns of a structure. They use specialized framing techniques to manipulate the viewer’s gaze, emphasizing a building’s distinctive features.
The rise of drone photography
Aerial photography by drone is one of the best ways to highlight a location, a structure or an overall view in a single shot. When it comes to real estate photography by drone, aerial photography is an undeniable asset for enhancing the value of a property or a large-scale real estate project.
As for aerial video by drone, in just a few years it has become an indispensable means of communication. Drone videography offers cinematic and unique images seldom before seen by the public. Drones in cinema have become a new tool used on many shoots as an essential tool for providng unique shots with an edge and with a power to set the scene like no other.
Drone-based 360° virtual tours also offer total immersion, thanks to new virtual reality headset technologies. It’s also possible to create aerial spheres in which visitors can move at will. This is a fast-developing technology that can help win over potential customers in the tourism and real estate sectors.
Drone photography beyond media use
The maneuverability of drones explain their many military and civilian applications. Initially used as a means of reconnaissance and espionage, the drone, thanks to technical progress, is now being used in civil applications (remote surveillance, cartography, peleology… aerial photography in short). Drones used in overhead photography and video have rotating wings and come equipped with a video and/or still-shot camera, placed in a three-axis gondola, enabling it to capture photos from a great many different angles.
The first aerial photograph dates back to 1858. It was taken by French photographer and balloonist Gaspard Félix Tournachon, known as Nadar, from his hot-air balloon, 80 meters above Paris. Photographs were then taken using both kites and cameras attached to carrier pigeons. But it wasn’t until 1909 that the first aerial photo was taken from a plane. The development of technical methods and procedures accelerated, giving rise to drones around the year 2000. Today, the use of drones in photography is booming.
Drones give you absolute precision when shooting photos. Thanks to their technical capabilities and professional equipment, the resulting images are remarkably sharp. The drone’s stability in flight means that the shots are perfectly framed and shake-free, giving precious, top-quality shots. In short, drone photography is a creative and immersive way of capturing unique moments. Don’t miss out on the opportunity to get some added value in your productions.
