Drone photography offers a simpler and more cost-effective alternative compared to aerial photography from an aircraft. The captivating visuals captured by drones are truly breathtaking. However, it’s important to note that, as of now, a drone cannot fully replace the capabilities of a helicopter or plane. Drones have limitations in terms of flying at higher altitudes, and they lack the extensive zooming options available to photographers using aircraft.

After various planes, seaplanes and helicopters, the utilization of drones in my aerial photography endeavors has opened up a whole new realm of creative possibilities. These agile and versatile aerial platforms enable me to capture dynamic perspectives, intricate details, and sweeping panoramic views, resulting in visually captivating images that showcase the magnificence of the properties or places I photograph.

Based in Greece, my drone services are available for hotels and villas in both photo and video formats. I am also highly skilled to take images from almost any kind of aircraft. Rest assured that as a licensed drone photographer, I prioritize safety, compliance, and ethical practices in all aspects of my work. I adhere to local regulations and guidelines, obtain necessary permits when required, and maintain utmost respect for the privacy and tranquility of the properties I photograph.
My drone photography is perfectly suitable for luxury hotels, resorts, villas, luxury estates and private islands.
