Hi, I’m Jake!

I’m a photographer, PADI divemaster, trad climber, and remote drone pilot!

I’m certified by the FAA to operate drones up to 55 lbs, and I can quickly obtain LAANC FAA waivers for jobs inside airport airspace. Check out my Real Estate page (left) for aerial sample photography.

I currently fly a DJI Mavic 2 Pro and Skydio S2, and I shoot on the ground with a Sony A7 iii, Sony a6500, and H-alpha modified Canon 80D. Contact me for a complete gear list to see if my kit matches your job.

Additional portfolio work can be found on my YouTube channel, my Instagram, and my Droners page.

I dive around the world with the Sony mirrorless camera, SeaFrogs housing, Sea and Sea YS-2D strobes, and two 6000lm Nemo video lights.

Find out more about me on my personal website!
