Aerial Photography
Aerial photography is so much more than just hanging a camera from a drone. Photography will always be, first and foremost, about making great images as only a human eye can see and control. An experienced aerial photographer paired with a skilled pilot should give you images that are so much more than just what something looks like. The world looks so different from a few hundred feet off the ground - don't lose the opportunity to grab your viewers' attention and show off your project with images that are truly different from anything else they've seen. While lifts, rooftops, catwalks, and even tall ladders can give interesting perspectives from above, aerial photography generally refers to images shot from airplanes, helicopters, balloons, and other manned aircraft. Depending on the aircraft your photographer plans to use, there may even be room for you to ride along!
Tips for Aerial Photography
USING A DRONE
We all know how fast technology moves, and Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV's or "drones") have exploded in availability lately. You've probably read about them in the news and seen their videos on the web. But there are limitations to the technology that an independent photographer and pilot combo don't face.
SET EXPECTATIONS
"Aerial photography" can mean different things to different folks. Photos shot straight down from 20,000 feet showing the plan view of an entire city are aerial photos, as are oblique, detail photos from 500 feet showcasing a single building, campus, or park in great light. Be clear with your photographer what you're hoping to show, and with how much detail. He or she should be able to quickly tell you if it's feasible.
BE PATIENT
When shooting from the air, lots of things are out of the photographer's control. Weather shouldn't be one of them. An experienced aerial photographer will choose days with certain kinds of weather, depending on the subject and the goal of the shoot. Be prepared to wait a few extra days to get the weather s/he needs. Your images will be better for it.
STABILIZE!
Ask your photographer how s/he plans to stabilize their camera to avoid motion blur in the final images. If they don't have a plan or seem unsure, make certain your contract has a provision to avoid paying for images that aren't up to basic technical standards. Images that aren't sharp also aren't very useful.
