How it works

  1. 1

    Tell us the place

    A pin or a street name is enough.

  2. 2

    We plan the flight

    Airspace, tide and sun. We check it can be flown before you pay anything.

  3. 3

    The shoot

    One session at the best light. Bad weather means a free reschedule.

  4. 4

    Choose your image

    Pick your favourite from a private proof gallery.

  5. 5

    Keep it, or print it

    Your high-resolution file, and a print if you'd like one.

Good to know

Who owns the photograph

Alexander keeps the copyright, and your image may join the Kess Gallery collection. You get a personal-use licence to print, frame and enjoy it. Choose Exclusive and it stays yours alone.

Booking and payment

Once we've confirmed the place can be flown, a 50% deposit books the session. The balance is due when you choose your image.

When the weather doesn't cooperate

We plan around swell, wind, tide and light. Weather reschedules are free, and we keep going until we have the shot.

Using the image for a business

A listing, a campaign or anything commercial is a licensing job for Kess Media, and we'll quote it separately.
