Elevated Lens Photography

Elevated Lens Photography provides photography services for architects, engineers, contractors, developers and real estate professionals in the Middle Tennessee area. Elevated Lens Photography uses a 65 foot tall telescoping mast with a high resolution camera system to capture dramatic low-altitude aerial views of properties and job sites from above. The low-altitude perspective we obtain does a great job of adding three-dimensionality to our photographs in a way not possible with either ground level or more expensive aerial photography methods. Our mast is vehicle mounted and can be set up in a matter of minutes once we get to your site. The mast height is pneumatically controlled so the camera can be positioned at any height from 13 feet to 65 feet above the ground. The camera is mounted in a 3-axis remotely controlled head which allows the camera to pan 360 degrees, tilt from about 70 degrees below the horizon to about 20 degrees above the horizon, and rotate the camera from landscape to portrait orientation. All adjustments, including camera settings, are controlled via a wireless network from a laptop computer on the ground. A live view from the camera is fed to the computer monitor so we can carefully compose our shots.
