Today we’d like to introduce you to Nathan Van Gundy.
Hi Nathan, it’s an honor to have you on the platform. Thanks for taking the time to share your story with us – to start maybe you can share some of your backstory with our readers?
Ever since I was a kid, I’ve been fascinated by the view from above. I used to lie in the grass and watch planes fly overhead, imagining what the world must look like from their perspective. Now, more than 40 years later, that childhood curiosity has turned into reality thanks to drones. I love capturing footage from the sky that gives a whole new perspective.
With over a decade of experience flying remote-controlled planes and drones, and more than 20 years of photo and video editing under my belt, I bring a unique blend of technical skill and creative vision to every aerial project. If you’re looking for stunning, cinematic views from the sky, you’ve come to the right place.
We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
No road is without its bumps and struggles, but I believe those are what give us character and make us better. There have been plenty of obstacles along the way, but when you get to do something that’s your passion, it never feels like work.
Great, so let’s talk business. Can you tell our readers more about what you do and what you think sets you apart from others?
These days, it seems like everyone has a drone. But standing out takes more than equipment. It takes vision and experience. My background in graphic design has sharpened my eye for composition, allowing me to capture shots that truly stand out. By staying current with the latest editing tools, I ensure every project ends with a polished, professional finish, whether it’s destined for a screen or print.
Is there anyone you’d like to thank or give credit to?
My wife deserves A LOT of credit for my success! She’s my biggest supporter through it all. If I’m ever out on a shoot, that means she’s at home taking care of the kids and running the house by herself. I simply could not do it without her love and support!
