We hired Josef and his colleague to take dawn drone shots of a Cancun Hotel. He was very easy to work with, took direction well and turned in great footage!

Documentary-style videographer needed for a CNBC video
It was great to work this project with CNBC. I was commissioned to shoot a 2 camera interview on a Sony a7sii and a Canon R5, that due to the hot temperature, got overheated at the last part of the interview, so we've changed the format from 4k to HD and got it finished.
