Tell me what you're shooting.

The more concrete you can be — what it's for, roughly when, and where — the more useful my first reply will be. If you'd rather talk it through than write it out, book a short call instead.

    Within 1 business day

    I read every inquiry personally and respond with either a written quote, a clarifying question, or a calendar invite — no autoresponders.

  2. 02

    We talk it through

    A 15–30 min conversation to understand the work, the audience, and the constraints. I take notes and follow up the same day.

  3. 03

    Written proposal

    Fixed price, scope, deliverables, timeline. No tiered packages or bait-and-switch upsells. You see the whole picture before you commit.

  4. 04

    Shoot day, your day

    Once booked, the shoot is yours — preparation, on-site presence, and the patience to wait for the right frame. Edits delivered 7–14 days after wrap.

FAQ

Common questions, answered honestly.

Don't see yours? Ask in the inquiry form — I read every one and reply personally.

What does it cost?

Every project is quoted rather than packaged, so the honest answer is that it depends — but it depends on specific things, not vague ones. Price moves with how many hours are on site, how many finished pieces you need, whether a film or a flight is involved alongside the stills, how the images will be used (internal, web, print, paid advertising), and travel beyond the Tampa Bay metro. Tell me those five things in the form and you will get a real number back, not a brochure.

How quickly do you respond?

Within one business day, rarely two. Every inquiry gets a personal reply — no autoresponders, no SDRs, no automation. Just an email back from me.

Where do you work?

Lakeland is home base. Most projects fall inside the Tampa Bay metro — Tampa, St. Pete, Clearwater, Sarasota, Bradenton, Brandon, Plant City, Winter Haven, Bartow. Lake County is regular ground (Mount Dora, Eustis, Sanford), and the springs and Nature Coast (Cedar Key, Crystal River, Homosassa, Weeki Wachee, Rainbow River) are favorites. Orlando, Naples, and the Atlantic side are routine. Out of state for the right project — travel and accommodation scoped into the quote.

Do you have FAA Part 107 certification and commercial insurance?

Yes to both. Part 107 active for drone operations, with commercial liability coverage available on request for clients who need a Certificate of Insurance.

Can I hire you for stills, video, and aerial all together?

Yes — that's a common ask, and the studio is built around delivering all three from one operator. Combined projects are usually more efficient than splitting between vendors and produce more cohesive final assets.

What's the typical turnaround?

Stills: 7–14 days from shoot to delivery, depending on volume. Video: 2–4 weeks for first cut, with one round of revisions included. Aerial: usually delivered alongside whichever workflow it's part of.

Do you do destination weddings or out-of-state work?

Routinely. The work has taken the studio across the Southeast and out west; international shoots have been done for the right project. Send the details and I'll let you know what travel looks like.

Do you offer LiDAR or survey-grade aerial deliverables?

No. The studio is focused on visual aerial work — photography, cinematography, and visual photogrammetry orthomosaics. For LiDAR or survey-grade outputs, I'm happy to refer you to specialists I trust.

What if my project doesn't fit your usual categories?

Send it anyway. The studio takes on commissions outside the listed categories regularly — sports, editorial, family portraiture, environmental, conservation. If it isn't a fit, I'll tell you and try to point you somewhere good.

Do you provide raw files?

Generally no — final delivery includes hand-edited high-resolution exports. Raw files can be negotiated for licensing-heavy commercial projects on a case-by-case basis.

How is licensing handled?

Personal use: included. Commercial use: scoped into the project quote based on usage, geography, and term. Tell me how the imagery will be used and I'll write it into the proposal.
