Turning an idea into a clear aerial approach, shot list and visual reference.

Experience in the air

Aerial imagery that looks effortless is carefully planned.

Lensaloft thrives on taking the first spark of an idea - a location, mood board or desired outcome - and turning it into a carefully planned aerial production, from aircraft selection and timing through to capture, post-production and final delivery.

Applications

Helicopter photography across commercial environments.

From major events and architecture to tourism, air to air and government projects, the aircraft, camera system and flight plan are selected around the brief and final use.

Capabilities

The right aircraft, light and creative approach for the brief.

Helicopter aerial photography is rarely just a matter of booking an aircraft and taking a camera into the air. The result depends on selecting the right helicopter, pilot, altitude, flight direction and capture system. Then using light, weather, texture and lens choice to shape the mood and visual impact of the final imagery.

Lensaloft brings the creative, aviation and technical decisions together to create imagery with the mood and impact to capture attention and help set the tone for the wider campaign.

Aircraft & specialist access

Aircraft and operators are selected around the altitude, airspace, operating window and type of aerial work required.

  • Single and twin-engine helicopters configured for aerial photography
  • Low-light and Night VFR aerial operations
  • Low-level and high-altitude work
  • Controlled airspace, major events and risk-assessed task-specialist operations
02

Planning & coordination

The flight is shaped around the intended image, while aircraft, pilots, airspace and project stakeholders are coordinated behind the scenes.

  • Weather, visibility, light and sun position planning
  • Pilot and aircraft coordination
  • Air traffic control and airspace planning
  • Permit, site and stakeholder coordination where required

  • Full-frame and medium-format systems from 50 MP to 150 MP
  • HDR and multi-frame panoramic aerial capture
  • Custom CNC 360° aerial camera rigs
  • RTK-supported height reference, mapping systems and vertical mosaics
04

Post-production is handled in-house with the final campaign, print, render, mapping or immersive output considered from the beginning.

  • Colour-managed post-production and delivery
  • Panorama stitching and high-resolution compositing
  • Print, digital, campaign and render-ready files
  • Specialist output for mapping, 360° and large-format use
