Aerial

Saco Bay and Biddeford Pool, Maine
Aerial photography gives the
viewer a perspective unknown from the ground.
The volume of information
available in an aerial as to a sites location, surroundings,
access
points, and general environment, make the aerial photo a valuable tool for
real
estate sales, builders, engineers, or just those looking for an
interesting
picture to
hang on the wall. The more "arty" one are in my
portfolio.

They are also a good way of
documenting a projects progress, especially if the project
is very
large, or lengthy.
For general sales brochures
and small prints needing fast turnaround times I usually
shoot "35mm "
digital.
Larger prints I usually shoot
with a medium format camera and film, as film still has a
snap the
digital sometimes lacks when enlarged over 20".
Recently I have started
doing large format aerials, where I shoot a 4x5 original image,
scan
that to a very large digital file, and print from that. These prints are
VERY large, and
can go to almost any length needed, as in mural size.
For more information on 4x5 large format, click

For the sake of economy,
most aerial is shot from small planes, but helicopter platforms
are also
available for sites needing very low angles.
