HawkEye Media Aerial Photography

Pricing

Each aerial project is unique based upon factors such as, but not limited to, site conditions, complexity of the project, risk to equipment and personnel, and end-use of photographs and/or video footage. Several factors are involved in estimating the cost for a specific job such as distance to travel, complexity of the job, site conditions, risk to equipment, etc. For each job we will need to review your specific needs and provide you with a written estimate of the total costs.

Unless otherwise agreed upon by HawkEye Media and the client, all work will be performed cash on delivery. Personal and business checks are accepted with proper identification. A 50% deposit is required prior to all jobs being performed. The balance is due upon receipt of invoice or the terms outlined in the contract.

Aerial Photography

Typically we use a Canon Digital SLR camera which provides us with 8MP images. We will provide you with a preview of the images on site, letting you choose which ones you want to use. We'll provide minor editing of these premium images including cropping, straightening, and color corrections. We price each job according to your requirements and needs. We don't bill by the hour or charge extra if the shoot takes longer than necessary.

We will provide you with proofs of these images within 3 to 5 business days in the format agreed upon in the contract. One approved by the customer, the images are delivered in their final format within 5 business days to the client according to the agreement in the contract.

All photographs or video will become your property once payment for the services has been received. HawkEye Media reserves the right to use any photograph or video for promotional purposes.

Aerial Videography

We use a Sony HDR-HC1 High Definition video camera for the aerial video. Using a Kenyon Labs KS-2 gyro for stabilization, we can capture the smoothest video possible. The HC1 provides the ability to shoot video in either a native 4:3 format or in wide screen at 16:9 for a truly awesome video experience. We'll review the unedited video with you on site, selecting the best video sequences for post production. Depending on your needs, we'll produce an edited version of these sequences and provide them in whatever format you need, whether it's a simple DVD, MiniDV, VHS, or formatted for a website (wmv or QT).

We can also provide you with a full blown production on DVD including additional ground footage shot with our Canon XL-2 and digital images shot on site. Add an interactive DVD menu for a professional product you'll be proud to use to show off your property!

Depending on the complexity of the project and the increased production involved with video, delivery of the preview and final product will vary according to the contract. Typically, we can provide you with a rough draft within 5 business days, but again, it varies according to the project.

What about bad weather?
In the event of bad weather upon arriving at the job site or while shooting on site which requires us to postpone or re-schedule the shoot, you will be responsible for a $100 re-shoot fee. At your request, we will remain on site until conditions improve at the rate of $50/hour. There is no fee if we re-schedule the shoot in advance due to inclement weather.

What if I'm not satisfied?
If for some reason you're not satisfied with the original photographs, we will provide you with one additional session and re-shoot the property at no extra charge. If for some unlikely reason you're still not satisfied with the photographs, you will be responsible for a $100 fee. If you decline the offer for the re-shoot, there will be no fee. In either event, no photographs will be delivered and all content will belong to HawkEyeMedia.

Additional Services

Photo Image Editing $75/Hour
Basic retouching to every proof is included in every job we perform. Extensive retouching involves methods to add, modify, or remove photographic content on a larger scale and carries an additional fee. If you have questions about extensive retouching, please inquire to avoid additional charges.

Each job estimate for video will include video editing. If you decide you want additional features or content beyond the original estimate, we typically bill additional work at this rate.
