Drone Filming & Aerial Photography in Berkshire

Professional aerial photography and cinematic drone filming for properties, businesses, heritage sites and promotional films across Maidenhead, Cookham, Marlow and the Thames Valley.

A different perspective

From a property in its landscape to the setting of a historic building, aerial images show the bigger picture.

Kaya Films brings a television maker's eye to aerial footage and photographs to help you introduce a location, promote your business or bring a destination to life.

With more than 25 years' experience producing and directing television programmes for major UK broadcasters, I understand how to capture images that are not only beautiful but tell a story.

Equipment and Technical stuff

I fly the DJI Mini 4 Pro, which weighs just 249g, capturing detailed 4K video at up to 60 frames per second, 4K slow motion and high-resolution photographs up to 48 megapixels. With RAW photography and vertical shooting for social media, it’s a versatile camera for property, promotional and aerial imagery.

Certification and Insurance

I hold A1/A3 drone certification and am registered with the Civil Aviation Authority. My FPV UK membership includes £1 million of public liability cover for commercial drone filming and photography. For projects requiring higher cover, I arrange additional insurance through Coverdrone. Certification and evidence of insurance are available on request.

Where I can fly 

My lightweight DJI Mini 4 Pro can operate in built-up areas and close to buildings, making it well suited to property, roof and venue photography where conditions allow.

Every shoot depends on the location, weather and airspace restrictions. I keep the drone in direct sight and maintain safe distances from people and obstacles. I can capture wedding venues and celebrations from suitable viewpoints, but cannot fly over crowds.

Send me your location and a brief outline of your project, and I’ll assess what’s possible.
