Founder and President

Capturing the perfect shot is what I do.
If you have a vision, I will transform it into a reality.

Drone Permission was founded in 2017 as a drone specialty provider with the mission of bringing expert content creators together with businesses that needed to highlight their best projects. I built a team of drone pilots, photographers, and creatives to produce the most unique content on the market.

I was in the concrete and construction industry for over ten years, which allowed me to build relationships with architects, engineers, developers, and contractors around the nation. My expertise is understanding every minor to significant detail and making any project stand out.

I’ve had the privilege of photographing and filming exclusive global projects, working on South Florida’s most luxurious skyline masterpieces while also having the honor of being featured in various magazine cover pages.

I’m committed to making my clients feel at ease, so all moments are captured effortlessly, while getting the best results. Some of my top strengths are taking over the planning and bringing the right creators in to maximize value and effectiveness. My focus on safety protects my clients at all times.

Whether your project is small or large, Drone Permission is “your boots on the ground and in the air” capturing your unique journey.
