Drone technology reinvents the way to discover Normandy
Our DGAC-approved telepilots take aerial photos in complete safety, highlighting the diversity of Normandy’s landscapes. From the Channel coastline to the cliffs of Étretat, from the bustling ports of Le Havre to the thousand-year-old abbeys, each flight offers an immersive and spectacular vision of the region.
Thanks to the drone, we can reveal unprecedented views of the D-Day beaches, the lush green valleys of the Orne or the marshes of the Cotentin. In addition to aerial photos, we also produce dynamic videos, ideal for promoting your tourist sites and events in Normandy.
Photography as a lever for Normandy’s tourism industry
In Normandy, photography is an essential tool for attracting travelers and visitors. Whether promoting a destination like Caen, a seaside resort on the Côte Fleurie or a rural commune in the bocage, strong images can convey the essence of a place and influence travelers’ choices.
Our reports highlight historic monuments, emblematic landscapes, accommodation and gastronomy, as well as markets, festivals and scenes of local life. Each visual is designed to reflect the authenticity of Normandy and reinforce the credibility of your media (website, brochures, social networks, posters).
Emotion and experience at the heart of images
A stay in Normandy is synonymous with relaxation, discovery and emotion. Our role is to capture these moments: a family by the sea in Deauville, a couple discovering the Bayeux tapestry, hikers on the trails of Mont-Saint-Michel or friends enjoying a local festival. Our aim is to convey the pleasure and uniqueness of each experience, so that you’ll want to live it.
Image rights
Respect for privacy is paramount. As part of our work, we make sure that all shots comply with current regulations and respect the rights of the people photographed. Where necessary, we work with professional extras to guarantee visuals tailored to communication needs, while avoiding the constraints associated with live shooting. Further information: image rights (Public Service) – CNIL recommendations.
Organizing a photo shoot in Normandy
Each assignment is meticulously prepared: detailed briefing, location scouting, precise planning according to tide and light times, coordination with tourist offices and local players. Anticipation is the key: if we need to photograph a scene on the beach at Arromanches, we take into account the tide, weather and crowds to ensure optimal rendering.
Of course, there’s always an element of the unexpected: sudden rain, strong wind, a temporarily inaccessible location… Our experience enables us to react and adapt the report to maintain the quality of the rendering. To plan your projects, consult: Météo-France Caen – sunrise/sunset times.
Tourism photography in Normandy goes far beyond landscapes: it includes people, heritage and living culture. From the beaches of Calvados to the cliffs of Seine-Maritime, each report is an opportunity to create a coherent, lasting image library for your communication media.
