Portrait of Jaymes

Meet the pilot

Hi, I'm Jaymes.

Retreat Drone Services is a one-person operation, not a faceless agency. Every enquiry, every shoot and every edit comes through me — which means the person you speak to is the person who shows up on the day.

I got into aerial work because there's nothing quite like seeing a familiar place from above for the first time. That's still the goal on every job: to give businesses, couples and homeowners something they actually want to share.

I'm fully insured, CAA registered, and comfortable working everywhere from busy events to tight indoor spaces with FPV.
