Free quote — aerial photography in Périgueux

A pilot who knows Périgueux knows where the light falls on the Isle and when Château Barrière stands out best: aerial photography here is as much about scouting as altitude. Every series is framed for its end use — print, web or file. The quote reflects the realities on the ground in Périgueux: site access, the department's airspace context (24) and the expected deliverable — reply within one working day.

Capital of the white Périgord, the city lives on gastronomy (truffles, foie gras, markets), tourism, printing (France's postage stamps are printed in Boulazac) and services. Drone missions: tourism and heritage, real estate, agriculture and truffle growing, construction monitoring, culinary and audiovisual productions in a much-filmed department. Prefecture of the Dordogne, Périgueux layers two thousand years of history: the Vesunna tower and the Gallo-Roman domus showcased by Jean Nouvel, the medieval-Renaissance quarter with golden lanes, and above all Saint-Front cathedral — Byzantine domes and turrets, UNESCO-listed under the Way of St James, which inspired Paris's Sacré-Cœur.
