Our Story
family owned AND DOING WHAT WE LOVE MOST.
We see the nature, community, architecture, technology, culture and people of British Columbia from another angle. In our province, we are surrounded with exquisite views and extraordinary diversity only found in this part of the world. Living on the West Coast has provided us with an incredible pallet on which to tell a story through the art of photography and motion picture.
We love to fly, to see every new perspective through our eyes and yours.

I flew a kite as a kid. I could see the world through the eyes of that kite
Aviation was always a part of Mick’s life while growing up in a Canadian Air Force family. At the same time he developed a fascination for cinema with a theatre always nearby on each base. He is now a 25 year veteran of the Hollywood and worldwide film and television industry and has worked with some of the most legendary actors and Directors in film. Mick is a full member of the Directors Guild of Canada, and Creative Director of MSI Drones as well as upcoming Moonscape Imagery.
Fuelled by his passion to create and collaborate in the art of story telling through videography, Mick is inspired to turn ideas into reality. Aerial cinematography is the onward and upward extension of Mick’s camera lens in capturing the world around us.
Mick is a licensed drone pilot with Advanced Operations certification issued by Transport Canada for the safe operation of all remotely piloted aviation systems. He is also a certified Flight Reviewer who enjoys sharing his knowledge, providing guidance, and welcoming the next generation of drone pilots.
