I am an experienced landscape photographer but a relative novice when it comes to drone photography. I purchased my first drone (DJI Mini 3 Pro) a few months ago and this e-book is exactly what I’ve been needing! Jeroen explains clearly how to use a drone safely and effectively. He also provides a wide range of tips and techniques for photographing the landscape from above. The advice contained in this comprehensive e-book is proving invaluable.

Renowned photographer and drone photographer extraordinaire Jeroen Van Nieuwenhove has done as wonderful job of presenting an otherwise technical subject in a manner that is simply portrayed and easily understood . It is a master class not only in Drone Photography but on the compositional techniques of landscape photography. It is an easy read with magnificent photographic examples to wet any photographers appetite to go out and capture stunning shots. It is a must read for beginners and experts alike ….

I can highly recommend this book – it really helps with my learning journey that started with a workshop with JVN in the summer (I also recommend a workshop!). Photographing with a drone is not as straightforward as it first seems. Flying a drone seems daunting, but once that is figured out there is still a lot to learn before you can make decent photographs – there is sound advice and some great tips in this ebook.
