Boat Filming London in Teddington
Specialist over-water boat filming london at Teddington for marine engineering, logistics, and creative media.
Recent Work
Selected work from across London and the Thames.
If your project sits in Teddington, we can plan and fly it with the river permissions already in place. Our crews pair CAA-licensed drone pilots with working river skippers who read tide, traffic and weather off the water rather than off a map. Tell us the deadline early, because the tide table, not the diary, usually sets the date.
Where the Teddington flight passes near bridges or moorings, we plan clearances and abort routes first. Capture is in RAW throughout, leaving headroom for grading or photogrammetric processing. Where the subject is a moving vessel, the shot is planned around its passage, not ours.
We notify the PLA and maintain contact with London VTS throughout operations in Teddington. Emergency landing points are identified on the bank or on a vessel before take-off, never improvised. If wind or river conditions turn on the day, the pilot's call is final.
If weather or tide closes the window, we rebook the next viable slot at no extra cost. Tell us what you need on the water and we will come back with options, tides and a price. Most enquiries get a same-day response.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do you manage wind and weather on the river?
The Thames corridor funnels wind and can be considerably rougher than the surrounding streets. We work to maritime forecasts and fly platforms rated to around 25 knots, so a marginal day does not automatically cost you the shoot.
How much notice do you need for river work in Teddington?
More than for a land-based shoot, because PLA notification and the tide table both constrain the date. A week or two is comfortable; tell us the deadline and we will tell you honestly whether it is achievable.
Can you launch drones directly from boats in Teddington?
Yes. Through our partnership with Cinecraft we have access to MCA-coded workboats and support vessels, and our pilots are experienced in launching and recovering from a moving deck.
