Wedding? Mountain climb? Drone-assisted proposal? Drones.io has your aerial filming needs covered

You’re a realtor, and you think some aerial photography would be just the thing to showcase your latest property. Or maybe you’re getting married, and some shots from above will make the day more memorable. Or suppose you’re producing an independent film and you need some dramatic video to add production value. Until the age of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles, aerial photography was beyond the budgets of most people, but now clients can find the perfect drone pilot for their project with Droners.io.

Drone pilots and photographers from all over the country post their profiles and portfolios on Droners.io, describing what kinds of jobs they can do. Prospective clients post a job listing, including relevant information such as dates, locations, and especially the type of job. The site includes several categories: weddings, events, real estate, construction, inspection, boating and water sports, TV and film production, and others. Once the job is posted, pilots can respond with their bid and clients can see their past work before making a choice.

Secure payment is made through the website as well, depending on the agreement made with the pilot. If you’re interested in flying drones, you can shop for instructors on the site as well.

Droners.io reports that they have over 700 pilots and companies signed up on the site. While the most frequent clients are realtors and weddings, new and creative uses for UAVs appear all the time.

One job listing asked, “Looking to go on a hike with my girlfriend and have a Drone come out of no where (in a designated spot) and have a drone come close enough to where I may grab the ring box and propose, while the drone continues to catch all the action on film.”

So if you have a wild idea that could use a drone, post a job listing and see if there’s a pilot out there for you.
