Elite Drone Services of Arizona

Elite Drones Services began as Elite Photo Phoenix back in 1997. I have worked as a professional photographer providing photo work for commercial assignments, weddings, real estate, events, magazines and fashion. In 2013 I began flying drones for public safety usage and eventually added a drone of my own to my photography equipment. I then began providing drone photography services as an add on to my ground photography packages. My drone photography took off and by 2017, I was doing more drone work than ground photography work. Today we are known as Elite Drone Services, your trusted source for all of your aerial photo & video needs. While we primarily do aerial photo/video, reach out to us if you need ground photos in addition to your aerial photo needs.
I started my journey as an FAA 333 exempt pilot for public safety and today I am an FAA licensed drone pilot. I have logged thousands of hours flying drones for public safety and commercial use. I carry a 1 million dollar GL insurance policy and am a licensed business with the State of Arizona. I am night flight certified and I can obtain FAA flight waivers to fly over crowds when needed. I am able to obtain flight authorizations for places normally off limits to non FAA licensed drone pilots, such as around airports. In addition to my FAA licensing and extensive flight training, I am also OSHA certified for construction project work, I am an Arizona state licensed EMT and I am a SARTECH II for public safety/search and rescue missions. I provide my services for free to public safety organizations who need emergency drone resources in the West Valley. I am available to travel anywhere my clients need me, both inside and outside of Arizona. I can shoot high resolution photo and up to 5.1k video. We are a first responder owned and operated business. Reach out to me today and let's discuss your aerial photography needs.
