2603 Willis Drive, Elizabeth City NC.

Mike Baker of Taylor Mueller Realty in Elizabeth City sent me a text, said he may have some work for me. Mike's a great guy and a good friend, and a local realtor. He had a new listing coming up in early January, and wanted some images. 

I figured out the best time of day after a day of rain and wind, and was at the location with my shot list. It was a drone pilots dream. Huge yards, few obstructions, zero traffic and no passerbys. Although sun on the front of the house would have been more aesthetic, this time of year you make the most of what you get from a sun hanging lower on the horizon.

After getting the shots he needed I got an orbit video b-roll (just in case), and headed home.

I had shot some HDR 3 bracket images, and a top down composite, so editing took awhile. I took another look at the orbit video, and decided to edit it into a quick 60 second promo for the property that featured some property details and Taylor Mueller's logo. I put that up on Youtube and sent Mike the link. He liked it, so I added it to his invoice. He's local so I dropped the files off at his office on an SD card.

If I retire as planned in a couple of years, I want to keep doing this work. So let's keep me busy!
