Crow's Nest: FAQ

Elevated Photography?

Elevated photography is an affordable, typically superior alternative to traditional aircraft-based aerial photography.

A mast that extends 50 feet above the ground topped with remote-controlled camera equipment produces stunning, sharp, detailed photographs.

It's a unique bird's-eye view of the nearby area, and truly impressive.

Crow's Nest serves Roanoke Virginia and surrounding areas including the New River Valley, Shenandoah Valley, Blacksburg, Lynchburg, Bedford, Botetourt, Smith Mountain Lake and more.
