Wadebridge Boat Club · Camel Estuary, Wadebridge to Padstow
Mapping the Camel Estuary channel at spring low water
The brief. The club commissioned an aerial survey of the estuary from Wadebridge down to Padstow so members could see the channel and the sandbanks that matter for safe boat passage.
The timing. The shoot had to coincide with a spring low tide, for the lowest water and the most exposed estuary bed, with conditions good enough to fly the full length in one visit.
Delivered
- High-resolution aerial photographs of the estuary channel from Wadebridge to Padstow at maximum low water
- Drone video of the full length of the estuary, cut to a short sped-up overview

How remote shoots work
You usually do not need to be there. Book online, we confirm the location can be flown, and then we lock in a time with you based on the weather forecast. Your edited photographs and video arrive digitally 2–4 working days after the shoot. Working days are Monday to Friday, excluding UK bank holidays.
Book online
Choose the £249 or £395 package, give us the address and what you want the images or video to show, and pay at checkout. Bespoke projects start with an enquiry instead.
We confirm the shoot
Within one working day we check airspace, access and any permissions, confirm which package fits, and note any light, tide or weather requirements. If the location can’t be flown, we refund in full.
Confirm a shoot time
With the shoot parameters agreed, we use the weather forecast to lock in a time with you. If conditions change and prevent the shoot, we’ll agree a new time with you.
Receive the finished work
Within 2–4 working days after the shoot, we deliver unwatermarked, edited sRGB JPEGs, normally around 6,000 pixels on the long edge where the source and crop allow, plus web/social copies and finished 4K video. Larger exports for agreed uses can be prepared where technically possible.
Important details
Final edited files are supplied for the person or business that booked the shoot. Copyright remains with Cornwall Prints.
Usage rights
Business commissions include paid advertising, websites, social media, listings, brochures and promotional signage for the named business/property. Your agency or parent-company marketing team may work on your behalf; other properties need an expanded licence.
Not included
RAW/DNG photographs, complete flight recordings, unused takes, LOG footage and editing project files are not included. Standalone file resale, independent sublicensing and merchandise are outside the standard licence. Repeated décor schemes across rooms, units or additional properties need a separate agreement.
Safety and permission
Cornwall Prints is a CAA licensed drone operator with £5 million public liability insurance. Every flight is risk-assessed and flown within UK drone regulations, with any permissions arranged before the visit. By booking, you confirm you are the owner, business owner, authorised manager or have permission to request the shoot. If we cannot fly the location safely or legally, we’ll discuss the options with you before proceeding.
Frequently asked questions
Answers to the practical questions people ask before booking.
Can I use the photographs in paid advertising?
Yes. Both £249 and £395 business bookings include normal paid advertising and printed marketing for the named business/property. There is no advertising surcharge or routine limit on promotional print quantities.
Does the commercial licence expire?
The standard licence is ongoing/perpetual and worldwide, with no routine renewal fee. Cornwall Prints retains copyright. Other properties and group-wide use require an expanded licence.
Can I print commissioned photographs for display at my property?
Yes. Business bookings include ordinary decorative display of the finished photographs at the property we photographed: for example, reception, an office, communal areas or one or several prints inside an individual holiday cottage. Promotional printing is also included. A repeated artwork scheme across hotel bedrooms, lodges, holiday lets or additional properties needs a separate agreement, even within one hotel or holiday park. We can quote to supply the prints or license the reproduction. Read the printing and decorative-use details.
Can our agency use the files?
Yes. Your staff, parent-company marketing team, designers, printers and agencies may use the files on your behalf for the licensed business/property. They receive no independent rights for other clients or properties.
Can I print photographs from a private home commission?
Yes. You can make prints, framed pictures and canvases for your own home and ordinary personal/family use. Selling copies or using the images to market a business or holiday let requires commercial rights.
Will private home photographs be published?
We will not publish photographs or films commissioned for private/domestic purposes without your permission. Commercial portfolio use is subject to agreed confidentiality, embargoes and launch restrictions. Private-use bookings do not automatically include commercial advertising rights.
How is a custom shoot different from ordering a print?
Our shop sells existing Cornwall Prints photographs as unframed prints, framed prints, canvas, fine art greeting cards and fridge magnets. A custom shoot creates new aerial photos and video of the home, property or business you choose.
Which package is the right fit?
Choose £249 for one straightforward property and £395 for more coverage of one principal site in one visit. Multiple locations, repeat visits, larger photo sets and substantial clip libraries need a Bespoke Commercial Project.
How do I pay?
Book the £249 or £395 package online and pay at checkout by card or the wallet options shown. Bespoke commercial projects are quoted and invoiced. We confirm every booking within one working day and refund in full if the location can’t be flown.
Does someone need to be there?
No. In most cases, nobody needs to be present. Details are agreed in advance and the shoot is completed independently when conditions are suitable.
When will my shoot take place?
Once we’ve agreed your shoot requirements, we’ll lock in a time with you based on the weather forecast. If the forecast or flying conditions change, we’ll contact you to agree a new time.
Will access to the property be needed?
Usually not. If access to private land, gardens, gates, parking or a specific take-off area is needed, this will be agreed beforehand.
Are copyright or raw files included?
No. Cornwall Prints retains copyright. You receive the finished files for the use we have agreed. Raw files, master files and unedited originals are not supplied.
What about properties outside North or Mid Cornwall?
Please enquire. Travel outside the usual coverage area may be possible, but may require a custom quote.
