| Our view from the sky is like no other. As pilots, we are fortunate enough to capture these moments through our own eyes, but how can we safely photograph these views?
San Carlos Flight Center invites Mark Holtzman, Commercial Pilot and CEO of West Coast Aerial Photography to share how to capture photos from the sky safely. For most pilots, taking pictures with our handheld devices may suffice, yet even then, safety considerations must be considered. In this seminar, Mark will share what pre-flight planning elements are required before every photography mission including the importance of two-crew and delegation of photographer and pilot duties, air traffic control coordination, and selecting a safe area to transit for photography work. With thorough pre-flight planning, a photo mission can be extremely rewarding. Mark will conclude his presentation with a showcase of some of his best work from over the years. The world of aerial photography allows us to capture the world from above. We encourage all pilots who have ever taken or plan to take photos from the sky to join in on this presentation.
