There are many large outdoor events held throughout the UK each year. These vary from music festivals to sailing regattas and horse racing events to motor sport events. All these events can benefit from Aerial Photography but each event will have different requirements and reasons for using aerial photography.
Event Aerial Photography is a specialist service which requires careful planning and execution to comply with all aspects of aviation legislation.
Images which will be used for logistical planning purposes for future events often benefit from Vertical Photography as it shows the special separation of people, cars or other items such as food stalls.
If the photography is for marketing purposes then timing is paramount as it will need to look busy but also aspect is important, usually oblique photography is the preferred aspect.
Companies that undertake Event Photography will usually store the images for future reference in their Aerial Photographic Library and with the appropriate archiving system these can be available for fast retrieval via e-mail.
