Drone operators quote before arriving on site because flight permissions, weather contingencies, and restricted airspace can affect both price and timeline. A quote sets the shoot duration, edit deliverables, and weather policy before any equipment is loaded.

Frequently asked questions

How much does drone photography cost?

A 2-hour aerial photography session costs €600 to €1,200 in most European markets. Construction site documentation (regular check-in flights) runs €350 to €700 per visit. Real estate aerial photography for a property listing typically costs €300 to €600 including basic editing.

What should a drone quote include?

List the session duration, number of locations, delivery format (stills, 4K video, both), edit turnaround time, and whether the quote includes permissions. If you're flying in controlled or restricted airspace, include the cost of obtaining CAA or national authority permission, which can add €100 to €300.

What is your cancellation policy for drone shoots?

Most drone operators have a weather cancellation clause in their quotes: if conditions are unsafe to fly, the session is rescheduled at no charge. If the client cancels with less than 48 hours' notice, a cancellation fee of 25% to 50% is typically applied. State this clearly in your quote.
