Sompting Estate, West Sussex photographed by drone

Strutt & Parker recently commissioned Horizon Imaging to take some aerial photographs of parts of the large Sompting Estate near Worthing, West Sussex.

Strutt & Parker required both aerial and ground photographs of a farmhouse which is being re-let, and also a collection of aerial photographs from across the estate. For once the weather was very kind to us on the shoot day, with blue skies from sunrise to sunset, crisp cold air and a subtle warmth from the sun – just as January should be!

The estate is vast and there were a number of key locations Strutt & Parker had highlighted on a map where the aerial photographs had to be taken from. One example was the ‘Downs Barn’ shown in the image below which serves as the head office for the estate as well as an educational centre. The white scar visible to the right of the barn is the route of the underground power cables from the Ramption offshore wind farm, just off the Brighton coast.

We have undertaken several projects for Strutt & Parker over the last year, and they continue to be very pleased with the imagery we provide for them. This was a testimonial they sent to us last year after one of our previous shoots:

“We commissioned Horizon Imaging to take some aerial photographs of some of our client’s properties. The resulting images looked fantastic and really helped us to see how the properties sit in their surroundings. We highly recommend Horizon Imaging’s services and we will be using them again soon.”

Do you have a large estate that you need to photograph, but want to do so affordably, and with the flexibility of flying from roof-height right up to 400 feet above the ground? Give us a call today and ask about our drone aerial photography services!
