Introduction

I am a Part 107 certified drone pilot that flies FPV drones and traditional video/photography drones. I love creating content that helps highlight all of the great things Indy has to offer! While drones are my passion, I am a experienced photographer as well. I enjoy doing real estate, travel, and event photography/videography. Would love to help with your photography and drone needs! Note: Thumbtack doesn’t allow me to differentiate between weddings and other events. I am not a wedding photographer/videographer. I do not do weddings!

Q&A

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?

Project-based pricing. I gauge price based on final deliverables, and estimated hours spent including travel and editing.

What is your typical process for working with a new customer?

Work with customer to understand scope of the project, the project vision, and get on the same page as far as expected deliverables, time/place, deliverable date, etc. Then organize the shoot to work with both parties and deliver content digitally, in person or however else is most convenient for the client. I am very flexible

What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?

Part 107 UAS Drone Certification Canadian Drone License Licensed pilot in the United States and Canada

How did you get started doing this type of work?

I am a very active person so I needed a hobby to keep me busy. 3 years ago I bought a used Canon l camera off a college roommate of mine and quickly found photography and drone work to be a passion of mine. I haven’t let up on pursuing it since.

What types of customers have you worked with?

I’ve worked with all kinds of clients. Everything from commercial drone and photography work to individual portrait photography. I’ve created drone content for many of the large tourism brands such as VisitIndy, downtownIndy, the 2022 College Football Host Committee, and the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. I love new challenges and always willing to try my hand at new creative outlets.

Describe a recent project you are fond of. How long did it take?

Shooting FPV and Drone content at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway has to be my favorite project to date and work I am most proud of as an Indy sports fan!

What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?

Find someone who cares about their work and takes pride in the product/service they deliver to their clients

What questions should customers think through before talking to professionals about their project?

What do the final deliverables look like for your project? How much time do you estimate will be on-site? What does the commute time look like for your professional? Most convenient way to communicate throughout the project?
