This page contains the information your venue may need for me to film at their venue.
I try to keep the documents and details up to date on this page, but this is a manual process. If you find anything out of date, please let me know:
As a matter of course, I do not require the use of the power outlets of a venue, and as such, there is no requirement for my gear to be PAT tested.
I carry separate drone PL insurance (see above) and keep up to date with all requirements to fly my drone legally and safely as set out by the Civil Aviation Authority for my current drone class. If the venue have any flight path restrictions, please let me know before the wedding.
Unlike driving a car, there is no such thing as a drone licence to fly a drone in the UK. Drone pilots must adhere to various requirements, depending on the class of drone and the type of flight operation, including carrying insurance for commercial operations.
Yes. I carry drone specific PL insurance in line with rules and regulations to fly my drone commercially.
Yes. These were provided by the Civil Aviation Authority after passing a basic flying test to demonstrate I know how to fly safely and legally.The operator ID is displayed on the Drone and can be inspected on the wedding day.
I fly a Sub 250g DJI Drone.This helps keep people and property safer and gives me more freedom to fly the drone.I follow all rules, regulations and requirements the Civil Aviation Authority sets for this drone class.
When arriving at a venue, I usually fly my drone for 5 to 10 minutes. Alternatively, I may fly during the wedding breakfast, depending on weather and time restrictions in the morning. I like to fly my drone when fewer people are around to cause distractions and interfere with my flight.
I typically fly my drone away from people and property. I avoid overflying property and people. I do not overfly large groups.
I use my drone to capture a wide view of the venue from a safe distance and a few shots of the surrounding area.I do not typically use the drone for flying close to people and property during the wedding day without a propper assessment of the safety of people and property.
