REALTORS Beware!! DO NOT HIRE Ground2Air especially Sean.. They will try to up sell their more expensive packages & if you do not go with their "recommendation" they will go behind your back and tell your Sellers that "Oh you should have gotten a custom video package instead of what your realtor got👎 Dishonest & sneaky business practices which can potentially hurt your listings/Seller's relationship..STAY AWAY!!

After seeing what this company was producing I wanted to try working with James myself, the results were truly incredible. I've never liked being on video, but James made the process easy and enjoyable. With… great ideas on how to improve my thoughts. The behind the scene work that James does to turn a bunch of images and videos into one seamless video is nothing short of incredible. Great feedback was received from the seller clients and the potential buyers, with several people viewing the listing just because they saw the video, an extremely valuable tool for my marketing.

I was introduced to James through a colleague on a collaborative listing (real estate) we were working on together and I was instantly impressed. He is very professional, very creative and has the equipment,… strong work ethic and the passion to create phenomenal video presentations. I have high expectations and I don't often post reviews, but in the short time spent with James I strongly feel credit is due. Thanks again James, I look forward to our next project together and following your business moving forward. 5 stars all the way!!

I've been working with James the last few months and it's really been my pleasure. The ease of doing shoots, the great customer service and attentiveness and his abilities behind the camera and with editing really make my job easier. He makes it look like I know what I'm doing :) I sell Real Estate with Re/max and I would definitely recommend Ground2Air Media Solutions to anyone looking for high quality photography and videography work!
