Social media marketing
Modern-day advertisement has been moved from the traditional mainstream media to various social media platforms, including Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter. Instagram, in particular, is defined by its unique feature of having quality images and videos. Aerial photography is one way by which photographers can capture high-quality aerial shots.

Aerial photography showcases the product in totality from up above. For example, a real estate company can get an aerial video showing all of the property and its surroundings. Nothing can describe an extensive area better than aerial footage shot by a professional.
It magically transforms regular shots
From experience, Henley himself bears witness to the fact that aerial photography can present things that appear normal on the ground level more magical from above. This is the same reason why businesses are turning their focus to aerial photography. They intend to make the ordinary extraordinary through aerial photography.
Provides clients with more than asked for, increasing their satisfaction with the product.
Have you ever come across a real estate video that does involve an aerial view of the surrounding landscape? The answer is probably a big NO. In case you have come across such a video, you might have noticed that you would have more questions than answers after watching the video. Aerial photography also has the ability to show viewers that cannot be typically seen from normal shots from the ground. In other words, they offer comprehensive coverage of things under focus.
