Real estate drone photography in Carlsbad, NM
Aerial photos and video that sell the whole property: the lot, the roofline, the neighborhood and the view. MLS-ready in 48 hours, flown by a licensed and insured pilot.
Why listings in Carlsbad and Artesia need aerials
Buyers in Eddy County want context: how big the lot really is, what is next door, how close it is to the Pecos River, the Riverwalk or town. Ground photos cannot show that. A few well-composed aerial shots can.
What every shoot includes
- Edited aerial photos, color-corrected for those big New Mexico skies
- MLS-ready files sized for listing sites and social media
- 48-hour standard turnaround (24-hour rush available)
- FAA Part 107 certified pilot and full insurance, with a certificate of insurance on request
- Airspace authorization through LAANC or FAA DroneZone when a property is in controlled airspace
Annotated lot lines and property callouts
The Showcase and Photo + Video packages include lot-line and property annotations, so buyers can see boundaries and key features at a glance. They are useful for acreage, corner lots and homes with shops, pools or outbuildings.
Ranch and land listings
Large parcels and ranch properties across Eddy County are quoted individually. Properties over 10 acres add $50 to a standard package.

Why hire a licensed pilot?
Licensed, insured, and it protects you, too
The FAA requires a Part 107 remote pilot certificate for any drone flight that furthers a business or job, whether or not anyone is paid. That includes a real estate agent filming their own listing.
If an agent or brokerage hires an uncertified, uninsured operator, they can share the liability when something goes wrong, and their own insurance may not cover it.
- FAA Part 107 certified remote pilot (Part 107 Cert #5324367). Legal to fly for real estate, business and commercial work.
- Fully insured. A certificate of insurance is available on request for your brokerage or client.
- Real penalties for skipping it. FAA civil penalties run up to $17,062 per violation for individuals and small businesses, and up to $75,000 for other businesses.[source]
