What commercial clients say.
5.0
Had the opportunity to work with Marshal through my place of work (The Independent Picture House). He was extremely flexible, creative, and open to our ideas while focused on the project needs and deliverables. Super grateful for his time, talent, and patience and look forward to working with him again!
My drone footage was amazing! And my listing was set apart from the others. It was creative, clear, and crisp. The drone even flew out the window into the back yard! I highly recommend One Shot Drone Tours!
My session with One Shot Drone Tours by Marshal was a complete success. Marshal was able to do a beautiful drone tour of the inside of my business, and take professional photos of the space for the website. The services were professional, the turnaround was super quick for receiving the content, and we're excited to work with One Shot Drone Tours again in the near future.
I was extremely pleased with the outcome of the video tour on this listing. The quality surpassed our expectations. I used the video in marketing the home, providing a perspective that was fresh and edgy. The skill Marshal has in navigating the drone and editing the video is amazing and worth it. I highly recommend One Shot Drone Tours.
Great experience from start to finish with Marshal! Professional and thorough, I would highly recommend his services!
As a Realtor, working with One Shot Drone Tours has transformed how I showcase my listings. Marshal's drone tour videos always impress my seller clients and offer potential buyers the opportunity to tour the home before stepping foot in the door. His drone tours give buyers a feel for the layout of a home in a way listing photos can't. Every video is thoughtfully edited, with smooth transitions and great pacing. Marshal is professional, punctual, and collaborative. If you're in real estate and looking to elevate the marketing of your listings, reach out to One Shot Drone Tours. This is high-end visual marketing at its finest.
The team is awesome to work with. I've partnered on multiple jobs with Marshal and the team and they are all professional, knowledgeable, and courteous. The style and quality of work they deliver is beyond anything I've seen here in Charlotte, a real asset to their clients.
Highly recommend One Shot Drone Tours! I needed new exterior shots and an updated drone video after my sellers vacated the home. Marshal and Alexander were both professional, responsive, and pleasant to work with. Their attention to detail and quality of work truly stood out from the others. They were punctual, efficient, and took their time. The exterior photos and drone footage turned out amazing and showed the property beautifully.
Marshal and his team are an absolute pleasure to work with! We cannot wait to share the amazing drone video and aerial shots they captured for us to help with location and engagement on our social media platforms.
( FAQ · Commercial )
What commercial clients ask first.
How does commercial pricing work?
Every commercial project is scoped individually, square footage, interior vs exterior mix, cinematic vs standard edit, delivery timeline. Four lines make up the menu: ground / interior photography from $400, standalone aerial photography with a commercial license from $400, an FPV walkthrough from $600, and the full package with all three from $1,000. Production FPV (cinema rigs) is quoted separately on the Production page at a $1,750/day base rate. Send scope, quote in 24 hours.
Can you shoot outside business hours?
Yes, most restaurants, hotels, and event spaces prefer early-morning or post-close shoots. We schedule around operating hours and typically do pre-open captures for hospitality clients at no added cost.
Can you provide a Certificate of Insurance?
$1M liability policy. COI available on request with additional insured endorsement, usually same-day. FAA Part 107 certified pilots, and we file airspace authorizations for controlled zones when required.
Who owns the footage?
You do, unrestricted usage rights for marketing, leasing, web, social, and paid campaigns on every commercial deliverable. We retain the right to show work in our own portfolio unless the project is under NDA.
What's your turnaround?
24 hours on single-location commercial shoots. Cinematic edits with licensed music run 3–5 business days. Construction progress deliverables go out within 48 hours of capture.
Do you shoot construction progress or time-lapse?
Yes, monthly or bi-weekly captures with consistent frame registration (same altitude, heading, and composition each visit). Ideal for pre-sale marketing, investor updates, and final before/after reels. See the Developments section above.
Will you coordinate with our agency or marketing team?
Yes, and often preferred. We can deliver raw files, graded masters, and edited cuts to an agency for integration into a broader campaign, or produce the full edit in-house. Brand guidelines, shot lists, and storyboards all welcome.
Do you travel beyond Charlotte?
Charlotte metro is included. Asheville, Raleigh, Greenville, and the Carolina coast, we travel regularly. Out-of-region and multi-day shoots are quoted with travel and lodging.
