About Batuti Photos

Batuti Photos is a CASA-licensed aerial photography and videography operation based on Sydney's Northern Beaches. Every shoot is handled personally — you deal directly with the pilot behind the lens, not a coordinator who dispatches someone else.

As an accredited drone operator for Surf Life Saving NSW, Batuti Photos conducts active shark surveillance operations along the NSW coastline. It's demanding, high-stakes work that requires precision flying, situational awareness, and the ability to perform in challenging coastal conditions. That same operational discipline carries into every commercial project.

Fully insured with $20 Million Flight Legal Liability coverage, CASA-licensed for commercial operations, and experienced across real estate, construction, weddings, events, and industrial inspections. Operating across Sydney and NSW — from the Northern Beaches and CBD to the Central Coast and beyond. Available Australia wide by arrangement.

Sunrise on Sydney's Northern Beaches is something else — the light hits differently, the city hasn't woken up yet, and for about twenty minutes everything looks incredible. That's usually when I'm already in the air.
