Architectural Drafting Services

Drafting -tell us your vision or give us your sketch and we will provide architectural documents for your design or construction use.

Aerial Photography

Although this is a new service, our drones allow us to capture beautiful aerial photographs that can’t be done with any other type of aerial platform including helicopters. We can capture high resolution photos from ground level to 400 ft and everywhere in-between. With full time live camera view and on screen GPS display we are able to frame up the perfect shot at the precise height and location you request. We currently utilize DJI's Phantom 4 UAV to offer 12MP high resolution photos with no distortion (fisheye). Compliance with current FAA guideline is a must and your particular project needs will need to be within those guideline.

The work samples below represent a small cross section of the broad range of project types we have successfully completed as well as the quality of work we deliver.

The samples should also serve to help you understand the different possible deliverables including the differences between "Simple" and "Detailed".

We have worked on everything from small cottages to multi-million dollar mansions to houseboats to exclusive resorts and hotels. We take pride in our work and our attention to detail shows that.
