Milwaukee Drone Videoand Aerial Photography

Added to a video shoot, $450. A stand-alone aerial session with 10 to 15 edited stills and 60 to 90 seconds of footage is $750. Progress visits after the first session are $350 each. Multiple locations and night flights are quoted on the call, faster turnaround is available when you need it, and every price includes airspace authorization and color grading.

Yes. Our pilot holds an FAA Part 107 remote pilot certificate, and we carry drone liability insurance. If your company or your client needs a certificate of insurance before the flight, ask and we will send one.

Most addresses, yes, sometimes with an authorization first. Send us the address and we will check the FAA facility map and tell you before we quote. Addresses right next to Mitchell International, inside event restrictions, or over crowds are the exceptions, and we will say so up front.

We reschedule at no charge. Wind over about 25 miles per hour, rain, snow or low cloud all ground the aircraft, and we would rather come back than deliver gray footage. We watch the forecast and will usually call the day before.

Yes. The night skyline, interchange and bridge images on this page were all flown after dark with the anti-collision lighting and training the FAA requires. Night work is quoted on the call because it often means a second visit at the right time.

The edited stills and footage are the standard deliverable. Raw clips and unedited photo sets are available on request for an additional fee, which we will put in the scope if you want them.

No. We fly a standard camera drone outdoors for video and stills. For interior walkthroughs we film on the ground with a gimbal, which gives a smoother, better-looking result for most properties.

A stand-alone aerial session is $750 and includes 10 to 15 edited high-resolution photos of the house and property plus a short video clip, usually delivered within a week and faster when a listing cannot wait. If you are already booking a video shoot with us, aerials are added for $450. Realtors who list regularly can ask about a per-listing rate.

Over your own property, almost always, as long as the airspace allows it. The FAA governs where and how high we fly; Wisconsin adds a privacy law that bars photographing people where they expect privacy, and some public land, including Milwaukee County parks, needs a permit. We handle all of it: we check the airspace for your address, get the authorization, and keep the camera on your property and your project, not the neighbors.

Yes, regularly. Lake Forest, Lake Bluff, Libertyville, Gurnee, Waukegan, Vernon Hills, Highland Park and the rest of Lake County are inside our standard service area with no travel charge, and we have flown construction progress in Elgin. Lake County airspace around Waukegan National and Chicago Executive needs authorization more often than Wisconsin does, which we handle before the shoot. See our Northern Illinois page for how we work on that side of the line.

Standard turnaround is within a week for edited photos and video, and it is often sooner. If you need it faster, say so when you book: listing photos can be in your inbox in a day or two, and we plan the edit around your deadline rather than the other way around.
