Your Photographer
MEET
Bayley
FAA Part 107 certified photographer inspired by beautiful locations around Arizona, dreamy golden-hour glowy light, and you.
I’m a life-long Flagstaff local who has loved taking aerial drone photos around this lovely little mountain town and the State of Arizona professionally for the past 12 years.
I find the greatest photographic joy in creating and capturing connections between beautiful people and places wherever I go. As my business has grown, I’ve traveled all around the State and the Southwest to produce classic, colorful images for my clients at their dream outdoor destinations. My camera and drone are my constant companions every time I step foot out the front door.
Bayley's drone pictures are amazing. I am obsessed. It's honestly a dream come true.
