About Putnam Aerials

Putnam County's dedicated land aerial photography specialist since 2014.

Over a Decade of Land Aerials in Putnam County

Putnam Aerials was founded in 2014 with a single focus: to provide the best aerial photography and video for land listings in Interlachen and Putnam County, Florida. While other drone operators chase weddings, events, and residential real estate, we have spent over a decade perfecting the art of capturing land from the air.

Land is different. A wooded lot, a rural parcel, a lakefront tract — these properties need to be seen from above to be truly understood. Buyers need to see the full scope of the land, the surrounding terrain, the access roads, and the natural features that make a parcel unique. That is what we deliver on every job.

Over the years, we have completed hundreds of jobs across every corner of Putnam County — from the St. Johns River corridor in Palatka and Bostwick to the lake communities of Interlachen and Keystone Heights, from the rural parcels of Florahome and Grandin to the waterfront lots of Welaka and Crescent City. We have captured tens of thousands of images and know this county's land better than any other aerial photographer.

Today we fly the DJI Mavic 4 Pro — the most advanced consumer drone available — delivering images and video that set the standard for land marketing in Putnam County.

Flown on the DJI Mavic 4 Pro — The Most Advanced Drone Available

Every job is flown on the DJI Mavic 4 Pro, equipped with a 4/3-inch CMOS Hasselblad-tuned sensor and a wide-aperture triple-camera system. It captures color the way the human eye sees it — not the washed-out, oversaturated look you get from cheaper drones. For land photography, accurate color is everything: buyers need to see the true green of the tree canopy, the real tone of the soil, and the actual depth of a pond or creek. The Mavic 4 Pro delivers that faithfully.

All deliverables are shot and delivered in 4K resolution by default — more than sufficient for MLS listings, marketing materials, and large-format prints. For clients who need the absolute maximum detail — large acreage parcels, subdivision plats, or premium listings — 6K capture is available upon request at no additional charge.

Why the Mavic 4 Pro Matters for Land
  • True-to-life color accuracy
    The 4/3" sensor with D-Log M color profile captures the full dynamic range of a Florida landscape — deep shadows under tree cover, bright sky, and everything in between — without blowing out highlights or crushing blacks.
  • Reveals what buyers need to see
    Soil color, water clarity, vegetation density, and terrain contour all read accurately. Buyers evaluating land remotely can trust what they see — which means faster decisions and fewer site visit delays.
  • 4K standard, 6K available
    4K is the delivery default and handles every MLS and marketing use case. When a listing demands the highest possible detail — think large acreage or premium parcels — 6K capture is available at no extra cost.
  • Stable, cinematic footage
    The 3-axis stabilization system eliminates the jittery, amateur look. Every video reel we deliver looks like it was shot by a professional film crew — because the hardware demands nothing less.
