Aerial film + photography / Holley Creative

SEE THE
WHOLE STORY.

Aerial work that gives brands, places and properties the scale and context the ground cannot.

A different point of view

Place.
Pattern.
Perspective.

The curve of a coastline. The geometry of a building. The way a place sits within its landscape.

We plan aerial stills and video around the views that make a location worth looking at. Based in Rockford, we photograph properties, places and brand stories across northern Illinois and greater Chicago, with travel scoped around the project.

The property.
And its place.

Aerial photography shows the setting around a home: the lot, landscape and relationship to its surroundings. Combine it with interiors and ground-level exteriors for one complete property story.

Planning your project

A few useful answers.

What can you capture with drone photography?

Aerial stills and video for properties, places, construction and brand stories. We plan the flight around the location, intended use and the views that will add context to your project.

Who handles aerial production?

Marcus Holley, our FAA Part 107 certified pilot, leads the aerial work. Send the location and preferred date so we can assess the shoot and any scheduling constraints.

Can drone footage be combined with photography?

Yes. Aerial images can be planned alongside ground photography and other production, giving you a consistent set of perspectives from one team.
