Breathtaking 4K aerial establishing scenes, historic venue flyovers, and immersive coastal perspectives. Led by Parks Dela Cruz, our licensed FAA remote pilot providing complimentary aerial cinema across St. Augustine and Jacksonville celebrations.
In the historic airspaces of St. Augustine and the St. Johns River corridors, legal authorization and safety are paramount. Parks Dela Cruz manages all flight operations with an active commercial FAA Part 107 Remote Pilot License, full liability coverage, and real-time LAANC airspace coordination.
Rather than treating drone footage as a brief novelty shot, we integrate sweeping overhead perspectives into the narrative rhythm of your film—seamlessly matched to the color science of our Netflix-approved 6K ground cameras.
A Cinematic Study of Heritage: This showcase reveals sweeping perspectives of the Bridge of Lions, the Lightner Museum courtyards, and the historic skyline. By utilizing the telephoto dual-lens system of the DJI Air 3s alongside the agile glide of the DJI Avata 2, we capture intricate masonry textures and open water reflections with pristine clarity.
Aerial cinematography is fully integrated into our wedding films at The Treasury on the Plaza, The White Room, and River House.
Dunes, Waterways, and Estate Lawns: From morning sunrise preparations along the Atlantic dunes at Vilano Beach to waterfront ceremonies along the St. Johns River in Jacksonville, our fleet captures the full geographical scale of your wedding setting.
The compact DJI Avata 2 performs proximity sweeps beneath maritime palm canopies and across breaking surf, providing motion angles impossible with traditional heavy drone rigs. These high-bitrate sequences bring dramatic cinematic grandeur to your wedding feature film.
We coordinate all flight plans and airspace clearances throughout St. Johns, Duval, Flagler, and Nassau counties with zero travel fees.
LAANC-authorized aerial establishing shots over downtown landmarks, the Plaza de la Constitución, and coastal bayfront venues.
Open Atlantic shorelines, oceanfront resort lawns, and coastal golf club flyovers along Vilano and Ponte Vedra Beach.
Sweeping riverfront panoramas across Epping Forest, The Cummer Museum gardens, and estate properties along the St. Johns River.

Yes! FAA Part 107 licensed 4K aerial drone coverage is complimentary and included in all our standard wedding film packages, provided weather conditions and airspace authorizations allow for safe flight.
Parks Dela Cruz holds an active FAA Part 107 Commercial Remote Pilot License and utilizes real-time LAANC airspace authorizations to legally fly near historic landmarks like the Castillo de San Marcos, the Bridge of Lions, Vilano Beach, and downtown venue rooftops.
Never. We never fly directly over guests or during quiet ceremony vows. Drone flights are planned during venue setup, portrait sessions, and sunset cocktail hours to capture grand architecture and establishing shots discreetly from safe altitudes.
Safety and legal compliance come first. If precipitation or high winds prevent flight, our multi-camera ground cinema setup (DJI Ronin 4D 6K, Sony FX3, Blackmagic 6K Pro) ensures seamless, complete documentary coverage.
Drone coverage is included across all our standard wedding collections. Let’s check your venue coordinates and coordinate airspace clearance for your celebration.
