The History of the Library Since the launch of our aerial photography service in 2012, we realised the need for creating a searchable database of aerial imagery. As our Director has a keen interest in both photography and aviation, High Level made the move to Fairoaks Airport in 2008. After operating in a rented Cessna […]

In recent times, drone requests have become “de rigueur” for many clients and this is something High Level can help with. The High Level drones are sent into the air on a regular basis for both stills and video work under the control of our trained and qualified operators, but it’s not always as simple as […]

A High Level View of London’s New Year Fireworks Spectacular! Working at High Level gets us into many unique and wonderful locations. Being commissioned for a photographic shoot whilst getting a front row seat in a luxury penthouse to view the New Year fireworks display in Central London, was an opportunity that was too good to pass […]

Consultation Atkins, one of the world’s most respected Design, Engineering and Project Management Consultancies, recently commissioned High Level Photography to come up with a photographic solution for elevated views of several M25 motorway intersections. The purpose was to illustrate them within the context of their surroundings, show the existing road layout and the surrounding lands […]

It was not by chance that the High Level Photography team was flying above Heathrow this morning.  We were there to witness and photograph the delivery of British Airways’ new super-jet, the Airbus A380.   Save for a another helicopter in the distance, we were the only chopper with authority to be in this highly […]

Once again High Level Photography has recently taken to the skies.  This time it was not a twin engine aircraft  that carried us forth, but a giant cherry picker!   These beasts of the road are often referred to in the construction world as elevated work platforms or man lifts and that is precisely what […]

The Joy of a red streaked summer evening sky gives no greater encouragement to our aerial photographers’ with an extensive list of “summer sunshine” briefs in their diary!  Putting our faith in the great British summer (and weather forecast), one evening last week we called air traffic control and scheduled a take-off slot for early […]

Recently, two of the High Level Photographers’ flew a helicopter down the river Thames in London to capture some sunset shots over London – a contrast to our early birds eye view aerial photography of London in dawn sunshine, which you can view here.   In our short timeframe we got some stunning crisp photographs of the […]
