Why it pays off

The shot that makes people stop scrolling

Aerials show scale, location and wow in a way ground footage can't. A listing, a project or a brand feels bigger the second it hits the screen.

Licensed and legal

Fitz is an FAA licensed drone pilot, so your aerials are flown under FAA rules. No gray-area footage that puts your project at risk.

Planned around airspace

Parts of St. Pete and Tampa sit near Albert Whitted, PIE and TPA. We check the airspace and get flight approval where it's needed before the day.

Sell the location

Show the neighborhood, the water, the roofline and the land around it. People get the whole picture in seconds.

Track the progress

Regular flyovers of a construction site give owners, investors and customers a clear before and after.

Edited, not just flown

We are a video team, so aerials get color, music, captions and cuts for every platform, not a folder of raw clips.

Add it to any shoot

Book drone on its own or add it to a brand video, event or real estate shoot, so one team covers the ground and the air.

Is it a fit?

Straight answers before you reach out

A great fit if

  • You run a job site and want progress shots
  • You want aerials that match the rest of your brand video
  • You need a pilot who checks airspace near Albert Whitted, PIE and TPA

Probably not a fit if

  • You need to fly where the FAA will not authorize a flight
  • You only need one quick phone photo from above

Not sure? Ask anyway. Fitz gives honest advice, even when we are not the fit.

Who you work with

Hey, I'm Fitz.

I started Fitzaey in St. Petersburg in 2022 because I kept seeing great local businesses get ignored online. Not because their product was bad, but because their content was.

I price and plan every project by hand, and I read every message that comes in.

All FAQs →
Do you offer licensed drone video for real estate and construction in Pinellas County?

Yes. Fitz is an FAA licensed drone pilot, so aerial video and photos for real estate, construction, events and brand videos are flown legally under FAA rules. Flights depend on weather and airspace, so if conditions are unsafe we move the flight to a new date. Drone can be booked on its own or added to any shoot.

How much does drone videography cost in St. Pete?

There is no flat price. Your quote depends on the location and any airspace approvals, how long we fly, how many edited videos and photos you need, and travel. Tell us about the project and Fitz sends a custom quote with every amount spelled out.

Can you fly near the beach or downtown St. Pete?

Often, yes. Parts of St. Pete and Tampa sit in controlled airspace near Albert Whitted, St. Pete-Clearwater International and Tampa International. We check every location ahead of time and request authorization where it's needed. If a spot is off limits, we tell you up front.

What happens if the weather is bad?

Safety comes first. If wind, rain or storms make it unsafe to fly, we move the flight to a new date.

Do I get photos too?

Yes. Aerial stills can be added to any drone shoot, and they work great for listings, websites and social.
