KONAHReal estate photography in Charlottesville, VA.
Cville packs a lot into a small city: historic homes near the Downtown Mall, older streets in Fifeville and Woolen Mills, rentals around The Corner, and in Albemarle, new neighborhoods in Crozet, homes on the hill at Pantops and land around Earlysville, with Monticello on the ridge to the southeast. It's near the edge of our area, so we plan these shoots ahead and often group them on one trip.
Charlottesville and Albemarle.
Mountain-view homes.
Out toward Crozet and the Albemarle countryside, the view of the Blue Ridge is often what the buyer is paying for. We plan the light around it: western views at golden hour, eastern views early. Signature Luxury ($895) brings the film, the 3D tour and the twilight that a listing at this level needs, and aerials show the land and the ridge line together.
Rentals near The Corner.
Near The Corner, many homes are rentals that change hands between investors or lease every year. Those need speed more than drama: a clean, accurate set with a floor plan, live fast. The Rental Listing package ($149) and Investor Rental Ready ($150 per unit) are made for that.
Drone photography in Charlottesville.
Charlottesville is far outside the DC-area rings our booking check models: the Downtown Mall clears every ring in our airspace check, and Crozet clears every ring in our airspace check. North of the city, near Earlysville, the regional airport has its own controlled airspace, so homes on that side get extra attention in the pilot's day-of B4UFLY and LAANC check.
Our airspace check, place by place. Drone is available at every one of them. Clear of every ring: Downtown Mall, Woolen Mills, Pantops, Crozet and Earlysville. Every address is checked when you book, and the pilot runs B4UFLY and LAANC on the day of every flight.
| Place | Our airspace check | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Downtown Mall | Clear | Outside every ring we check. The pilot still runs B4UFLY and LAANC on the day. |
| Woolen Mills | Clear | Outside every ring we check. The pilot still runs B4UFLY and LAANC on the day. |
| Pantops | Clear | Outside every ring we check. The pilot still runs B4UFLY and LAANC on the day. |
| Crozet | Clear | Outside every ring we check. The pilot still runs B4UFLY and LAANC on the day. |
| Earlysville | Clear | Outside every ring we check. The pilot still runs B4UFLY and LAANC on the day. |
Checked against the rings on our drone page, measured from the center of each place. Our booking check is built around the DC-area rings; this far out, the pilot's B4UFLY and LAANC check on the day decides every flight. Your exact address is checked when you book.

Charlottesville questions.
Is there a travel fee to Charlottesville?
Charlottesville and Albemarle are outside our core no-travel-fee area, so please ask about travel before you book. Package prices stay the same, and nothing is charged that you didn't see first.
How far ahead should I book Charlottesville shoots?
About a week is ideal, so we can line up several Cville jobs on one trip.
Can you fly a drone near Earlysville and the airport?
Yes. Homes near the airport get a LAANC authorization first, usually in minutes; the pilot requests it before the flight. Every address is checked when you book.
Do you shoot rentals near The Corner?
Yes. Rental Listing ($149) is a fast, lighter shoot built for landlords.
