About CDM

Mitch Mitchell

For over ten years, Coastal Drone Marketing owner, Mitch Mitchell, has been working with businesses, non-profits, and event planners to create multi-media promotional videos.

But even before drone technology became mainstream, Mitch recognized the unique and charismatic qualities of aerial photography. As a realtor in Marco Island, Florida in the early 2000s, Mitch went up in airplanes to get breathtaking shots for his clients. The first time he saw the shaky footage from a friend’s hobby drone, he grasped the benefits and possibilities of drone photography and immediately began studying, practicing, and mastering the new technology.

What does all this experience mean for your project?

Mitch takes pride in everything he does. Since he lives in the coastal DE/MD area, he can capture the footage when conditions are best – sometimes that’s the golden hour, sometimes, because of shadows, it may be mid day. If your venue is outside, he’ll monitor the forecast to make sure, if time allows, your shoot takes place with hospitable weather. He knows flexibility is key.
He takes the time to get the right shot in the right lighting in the right conditions to create the best images possible.
