About Payton's Precision Drone Ops
Payton's Precision Drone Ops
Please contact by facebook or instagram. I am an FAA Part 107 certified commercial drone pilot dedicated to capturing the world from a breathtaking new perspective. My passion for photography is rooted in a deep appreciation for landscape and structure, drawing from my professional background as an Environmental Engineer and my graduate studies in Geological Engineering. This technical foundation allows me to approach every wedding with precision, ensuring the beauty of your venue and your special moments are captured perfectly from the air. I specialize in high-resolution aerial storytelling that provides a cinematic view of your big day.
What sets me apart is the combination of technical precision and creative subtlety. Unlike hobbyists, my Part 107 certification ensures a professional, safety-first approach that venues trust. My specialty is "quiet cinematography"—using a 70mm telephoto lens to capture intimate, high-definition aerials of your ceremony or other events from a distance. This allows me to get stunning close-up shots without the drone hovering directly over you or disrupting any moments. I don't just provide "bird’s-eye" views; I deliver a filmic perspective that elevates your wedding story while remaining completely unobtrusive.

Wedding Drone Video
We hired Payton's Precision Drone Ops for our wedding and he did amazing. From our first conversation, Payton was quick to respond and super easy to work with, which made the whole planning process smooth. On the day of our wedding, he was so unobtrusive that we barely noticed he was there, but the videos and photos he captured were stunning. What really blew us away was seeing our day from a completely different perspective—the drone shots gave us angles we never would have thought of. Payton's attention to detail and hard work really showed in the final product and made our day look incredible. We're so grateful we chose him and would recommend Payton's Precision Drone Ops to any couple looking for aerial videos or photos.

Amazing Drone Footage
We were thrilled with Payton's Precision Drone Ops from start to finish. He responded quickly to all our questions and was incredibly flexible if we needed to adjust our timeline. The videos were edited perfectly, and the drone shots gave us a completely fresh perspective of our day that we never could have gotten otherwise. His cinematic style felt professional without being stuffy, and he captured the energy and emotion of our wedding beautifully. We loved the final results and would absolutely recommend him to any couple looking for videography that stands out. Fantastic work from him and he truly cares about making your day special.
