What's Holding You Back

Ports are built at a scale only the air can hold. Harwich's harbour, quays and ferry terminals run operations that a ground camera reduces to fences and bollards, while the old town's maritime streets and Dovercourt's seafront barely feature in local marketing at all. Businesses here sit on some of the most filmable territory in Essex, mostly unfilmed.

What we deliver

Our Harwich work covers aerial photography, aerial videography, construction and site progress filming and property or land imagery. Port-adjacent airspace is planned carefully on every booking, and coastal weather gets a backup date as standard. From Chelmsford we're about an hour away, and everything arrives edited and formatted for immediate use.

The Result

Clients across the town use the results differently. Marine and logistics firms show harbour access and operational scale in single frames. Contractors record port and infrastructure works with dated flyovers. Agents market old-town property with its quayside character visible. It's a working town with a remarkable setting, and the imagery finally shows both.

STAG Solar
Drone / Videography / Photography

We have engaged with KJW media for a number of drone based projects and have found Kian highly responsive. We have typically engaged Kian with a concept and he has been proactive in brain storming with us and making creative suggestions. Then once he has recorded the footage agreed we have found him patient and interested when we have requested edits and adaptions, implementing these quickly. Like us he is clearly interested in his trade and craft and this makes him a great person to collaborate with. We feel KJW's pricing makes their services very accessible, hence our using them on multiple occasions this year alone. Well worth asking for a quote as you may be surprised.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you travel out to Harwich?

Yes, it's about an hour from our Chelmsford base and part of our regular coastal round. Port-area airspace and sea weather both get planned for properly, with backup dates built into every booking.

Which types of aerial work do you handle?

Four on this page: aerial photography, aerial videography, construction and site progress and property and land. Each one comes planned, flown and edited by the same pair of hands. Clients wanting matching ground imagery simply add commercial photography around Harwich to the same appointment.

Do you charge by the hour or day?

Neither. Jobs are costed as jobs, so you pay for outcomes rather than clock time. That keeps a quick Harwich stills set affordable and stops longer edits from producing surprise invoices weeks after the flight.

Do we get anything before the final files?

Where it helps, yes. Selects or preview frames can go over early while the full edit continues on the desk. Final Harwich deliverables then follow on the dates written into the booking from the start.

Do you also work in the surrounding villages?

All of them. Dovercourt, Parkeston and Ramsey sit minutes away, Little Oakley and Great Oakley not much further, and a brief spanning two or three of them fits comfortably into a single visit rather than several.

Besides flying, what do you do?

Shoot, film and publish. Photography for Harwich businesses, videography taken from brief to final cut, and social media management that keeps the feeds fed. The drone is one tool among several in the bag.
