Who We Are

21 years in the air.
Built around one problem.

Aerial Now is a Melbourne-based aerial photography business operated by a CASA-licensed pilot and photographer with over 21 years of experience across drone and fixed-wing aircraft operations.

The business was built around a single observation: construction and infrastructure projects consistently lack a reliable visual record. Site photos taken on phones. Inconsistent angles. Gaps in the timeline. When disputes arise or lenders ask questions, the documentation simply isn’t there.

Aerial Now was founded to fix that — providing scheduled, systematic aerial documentation that runs on its own schedule, delivers on time, and produces imagery that’s actually useful for the people who need it.

We work with builders, developers, infrastructure managers, asset owners, and councils across Melbourne and regional Victoria. Every client gets the same thing: consistent angles, on-time delivery, and a visual record that holds up.

Our Focus

Not a general photography business.

Most drone operators offer aerial photography as one service among many — real estate, events, weddings. We don’t.

Aerial Now works exclusively with construction and infrastructure clients. Every system, every workflow, and every pricing structure is built around project schedules, lender reporting, and documentation that holds up over the life of a build.

That focus is why our clients don’t have to explain what they need.

Our Capability

Two platforms. One result — your site, on schedule.

Running both drones and fixed-wing aircraft means we can cover any site, at any scale, without missing a shoot due to weather or airspace restrictions.

Urban & Constrained Sites

Drone Aerial Photography

Detailed low-altitude imagery for urban construction sites, apartment developments, and infill projects across Melbourne metro. Precise angles, fast turnaround, and full CASA compliance for built-up areas and controlled airspace.

Large Scale & Infrastructure

Fixed-Wing Aircraft Photography

Large land subdivisions, infrastructure corridors, industrial estates, and regional sites. Fixed-wing aircraft cover the full extent of a project in a single flight — ideal for anything spanning hundreds of metres to kilometres.

How We Work

The same standard on every project.

Reliability you can plan around
Every shoot runs on schedule. If conditions ground the drone, the aircraft goes up. Clients don’t chase us — they just receive their files. That consistency is the whole point.
Imagery built for decisions
Fixed angles, dated folders, and consistent framing across every visit. The images are designed to be directly comparable over the life of a project — not just good-looking on the day.
Built around your project schedule
Shoot dates are locked in for the project duration. You get a reminder before each flight, files in your inbox 48 hours later, and nothing else to manage. The documentation runs itself.
