I am so pleased to add a DJI Mavic Pro to my photographic arsenal. Having owned a first edition DJI Phantom in New Zealand (which I sold a few years ago), the release of the highly portable Mavic Pro late last year confirmed to me that drones have really come of age. Amazing results come from small packages and I will be taking the drone with me to Norway early next month to capture some of the stunning scenery that Norway dishes up in bucket-loads. The video above is my first real edit, from my first real flight. I can’t wait to add to my portfolio as I continue flying in various countries. Featuring 4K video and raw image capture, the Mavic from DJI amazes me with its advanced development and compact design. Upon my return from Norway I will also be following up on video and imagery opportunities here in Perth. Watch this space!

Being a unit stills photographer on set is one of the most exciting aspects of my work. I love the process of film making and how so many people with just extraordinarily varied talents work together cohesively as a team to create movie magic. Watching a film being created is an aspect few people can experience. I consider myself very fortunate.
