River Event Filming in Wandsworth
Specialist over-water river event filming at Wandsworth for marine engineering, logistics, and creative media.
Recent Work
Selected work from across London and the Thames.
We run drone operations in Wandsworth throughout the year, in all tide states. The work ranges from single vessel shoots to multi-day coverage of marine civil projects. We can attend a pre-start or toolbox meeting where the project requires one.
River work in Wandsworth is planned against live traffic information, not a generic river chart. We fly marine-configured aircraft rated for the wind speeds the river corridor regularly produces. We can work outside normal hours where river traffic or light demands it.
We notify the PLA and maintain contact with London VTS throughout operations in Wandsworth. Documentation is available up front: permissions, marine insurance and the risk assessment. We hold the separation the regulations require from anyone not under our control.
Where the tide window is tight, we plan the shot list so nothing depends on a second visit. We are trusted on the river by operators including CPBS Marine Services, MMS Marine and the Dutch Master. We can hold a provisional tide window while you confirm internally.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you carry out structural inspections on Thames bridges and piers?
Yes. We fly high-zoom and thermal payloads for close-range condition surveys of bridges, piers, river walls and marine civil works, and can deliver the output as an annotated report or georeferenced imagery.
Can you fly at night or in low light on the river?
Yes. Night and blue-hour work over the Thames is something we do regularly, with the lighting conditions and additional risk factored into the plan. Twilight often gives the strongest results on the tideway.
Can you launch from the bank rather than a vessel in Wandsworth?
Often, yes, and it is usually cheaper. It depends on landowner permission, a clear take-off and landing area, and whether the subject stays within safe range from shore. We will tell you which approach the shot actually needs.
