While I said that the friendly encounter in Florence was a turning point for me, it wasn’t my first time working with DJI Phantom technology. The Integration of DJI Drones Into My Workflow Additional color correction was applied using Adobe After Effects and Photoshop.

Welcome to a brand new world of possibilities, all controlled in the palm of your hands.Īn edit of some of the drone footage I captured with 7 days in Italy during my 2015 Italy Dream Photo Tour. ![]() I’d just say that after adding a DJI Phantom 3 to my workflow, my perspective on travel photography has been forever changed. Don’t get me wrong, there’s nothing wrong with good old fashioned hard work and strategic positioning, quite the contrary. Now, a fair bit of those climbs, offshore boat excursions, or costly helicopter hires can be solved with a small, affordable DJI Quadcopter that fits comfortably into my backpack. I often feel like most of my job is working to arrive in the best possible place to take a photo, because the location and framing of my subjects are the core of my unique style of travel photography. Whether it’s a 50 hour airline travel itinerary, a simple 25 meter rocky climb, or even multiple days sleeping in a car, or any number of other uncomfortable conditions for that matter, whatever it’s taken to get the shot I have considered well worth the effort. I’ve literally climbed mountains, paddled kayaks, ridden pack mules, contracted helicopters, you name it and I’ve done it. Since I started traveling full-time as a photographer in 2009, I’ve consistently gone out of my way to find the most awesome vantage points possible for my photography. This statement may seem strange to some, but let’s dive into together as I share my perspective as photographer integrating these new tools for capturing the world. I was already a huge fan and avid user of DJI Quadcopter / Drone technology, but these few simple words from a complete stranger solidified my perception of the sheer potential of personal aerial photography and videography devices. This encounter was a turning point for me. Smiling, wrapped up in the emotional moment and honestly becoming a bit teary eyed myself, I didn’t know what to say except, “thank you.” Her transfixed gaze slowly lifted from the screen to meet my eyes and she said, “I was born in Florence and I’ve lived here all of my life, but I’ve never seen my city look as beautiful as this.” It was then that I noticed that her eyes were filled with tears. ![]() an Inspire 1Ī friendly Italian woman, probably in her mid-fifties, looked over my shoulder at the live feed from my mobile device and stopped dead in her tracks.
