Conventional photographs and videos taken by a professional photographer are perfect for recording the important moments as they happen inside the Church and reception venue. They are great for some of the more intimate shots outside too. However nothing will capture the impressive scale of the day’sevents outside better than professional aerial photographs and videos.

Why choose Hummingbird Droneworks?
In the UK it is illegal for any individual or organisation to take aerial photographs, videos or film for commercial gain unless they hold an appropriate permit from the Civil Aviation Authority. The term 'commercial gain' means receiving payment of any kind in return for aerial work, including payment 'in kind' such as returning the favour. The fines are large and offenders can even be sent to prison. Furthermore, it is impossible to obtain insurance cover for any aerial work without having a current CAA Permit, so why risk it?
Hummingbird Droneworks holds the required 'Permit for Commercial Operations' (PfCO) granted to us each year by the Civil Aviation Authority. Our pilots are professionally qualified and BNUC-S™ licenced to fly drones commercially. We are fully insured to carry out commercial operations in compliance with the latest UK and EU regulations.
