Drone Videographer in Seattle

Yes. Every drone shoot is flown by an FAA Part 107 certified remote pilot, which is the federal license required to operate a drone commercially in the United States.

• We fly within FAA rules for the Seattle airspace
• request authorization through LAANC when a job site sits inside controlled airspace near Sea-Tac, Boeing Field, or Renton Municipal
• keep the aircraft within visual line of sight

If your project needs a specific altitude waiver or a flight in a restricted zone, we will tell you up front what is and is not allowed before you book.

Aerial video starts at $100 per hour for social-media-ready footage and $200 per hour for professional 4K drone production, with a 2-hour minimum per session.

• Raw footage is delivered within 24 hours on footage-only shoots
• Editing into a finished aerial reel is available at $75 per hour and turnaround depends on the length and complexity of the cut
• Travel is included for any location within 30 minutes of our Bellevue base, which covers most of Seattle, the Eastside, and south King County; beyond that we charge $1 per mile round trip

For a full price breakdown, see our drone videography cost guide.

We shoot aerial video for construction progress and site overviews, real estate listings and large lots, outdoor events, and raw land.

Typical deliverables include:

• overhead site maps
• slow reveal flyovers of a property
• elevation passes along a building
• establishing shots that set the scene for a listing or marketing video

Drone footage pairs well with ground video from the same shoot, so you can book a single session and get both aerial and on-the-ground coverage.

You do not need a city permit for most commercial drone work in Seattle, but the pilot must hold an FAA Part 107 certificate and follow FAA airspace rules.

• Much of Seattle sits in controlled airspace, so flights near Sea-Tac, Boeing Field, or Renton Municipal require LAANC authorization first
• Vourly handles the Part 107 licensing and LAANC requests for you
• flags any location where flight is restricted before you book

In most cases yes, with the right authorization. Downtown Seattle and areas near Sea-Tac (KSEA), Boeing Field (KBFI), and Renton Municipal (KRNT) fall inside controlled airspace, which we clear through LAANC before the shoot.

• Lake Union and Elliott Bay have active seaplane lanes, so we plan altitude and timing around them
• some parcels and events are no-fly zones
• we check your exact address and tell you what is allowed up front

We fly a professional 4K camera drone that captures high-resolution aerial stills on the same flight, so you get both footage and photos in one session.

• Every shoot is flown by an FAA Part 107 certified pilot
• Raw 4K footage is delivered within 24 hours on footage-only shoots
• if you also want it edited into a finished aerial reel, editing is billed at $75 per hour and turnaround depends on the length and complexity of the cut

Every flight is operated by an FAA Part 107 certified remote pilot, flown within FAA rules and cleared through LAANC when a site sits in controlled airspace.

If your property, HOA, venue, or general contractor requires proof of coverage or a certificate of insurance for the shoot location, let us know when you book and we will confirm what we can provide for your project.

Raw 4K aerial footage is delivered within 24 hours of your shoot on footage-only sessions, so you can review the flight the next day.

• If you want a finished, edited aerial reel, editing is billed at $75 per hour
• turnaround depends on the length and complexity of the cut, since that kind of project delivers once the edit is complete
• you can also add ground video from the same session and have both edited together into one deliverable
