Aerial Photography Continues to Remain in High Demand

Aerial Photography Continues to Remain in High Demand

The first known aerial photograph . . .

Man in hot air balloon 1858 over Paris[W]as taken in 1858 by French photographer and balloonist, Gaspar Felix Tournachon, known as “Nadar”. The modern aerial photography I’m writing about began on June 25, 2014, when the FAA granted the right to use drones in aerial filmmaking. Operators are required to be licensed pilots and must keep the drone in view at all times. Drones cannot be used to film in areas where people might be at risk. Below is the latest video edit I completed today for a client who wanted to be listed on the Tahoe.com Real Estate Page.

Sierra Blue works with several professional FAA licensed aerial photographers with numerous years of experience. If you seek aerial photography for an upcoming, let me know.

Carl Costas: Visual Thinker
Carl served in the United States Marine Corps as a sergeant. After serving with some of the bravest people I’ve ever met, I traded my weapons for cameras — and learned about myself.

Carl says he was, “reborn through photojournalism.” His work has since taken him around the world, “and into the lives of countless beautiful people.”

Today he shoots a healthy mixture of commercial, editorial, and personal work.

Below is a video that showcases Carl’s work in a great light, no pun intended.

Westlake, Sacramento Video

I’m CT, owner of Sierra Blue – a full-service creative agency based in Sacramento, CA with roots in Lake Tahoe and the Bay Area. Video is the #1 consumed content online and I’ve decided to put more time into showcasing my production and post-production skills.

ABOUT THIS PROJECT

Westlake is a planned community just a few miles north of downtown Sacramento. I put together a marketing project for a homeowner who wanted to showcase the area’s unique natural beauty. This is that. She sold her home in about 40 days from listing and actually got about 5% over asking.

Marketing with Video

Marketing with Video

This is a marketing video (demo) for consideration to be installed in a resort lobby in North Lake Tahoe. The client is interested in doing this for winter, but I suggested we get something up before August 2021 so have something to show advertisers.
