Aerial photography, video, and inspections for southwest Washington — showing the lot lines, the setting, and the scale a camera on the ground will never reach.
Real shoots over the Longview area — historic buildings, public spaces, and local landmarks, captured from the air.

Every job is flown legally under FAA Part 107 and handed back edited — finished stills and video ready to use, not raw files for you to sort out.
Aerial stills and walk-the-property video that show the acreage, the approach, and the setting — sized for MLS, social, and the brochure.
Parades, graduations, concerts, Friday-night football. A vantage point no one in the crowd will ever have, captured overhead and returned as a finished edit.
Roofs, structures, and acreage documented from the air for insurance and maintenance — a complete view to plan from, without ladders or risk.
An overhead view that makes a process click. I've helped school districts, bus depots, nonprofits — even a bank — see and explain their operations from above.
Long View Aerial Services is based in Longview, Washington and led by Matt Carnahan — a Part 107–certified pilot who has been flying drones since 2015. The business is new, established in 2026, but the hours behind the controls aren't.
On a shoot, Matt flies with a small, reliable team — visual observers, coordination and communication, setup and teardown — including up-and-coming pilots training toward their own Part 107. It keeps every flight safe, legal, and on schedule.
Operating under Part 107 and fully insured means clients aren't carrying liability for the flight — the certification and the coverage are ours. You get one clear point of contact and finished work, not raw footage.
