They say location is everything — but how do you show that in a photo?

Drone photography is one of the most effective ways to highlight a property’s position, size, and surroundings. Whether you're selling a single-family home in New Orleans or a multi-unit investment property in Metairie, aerial imagery provides perspective that ground-level shots can’t match.

At Fleur de Photo, we offer drone photography and video as stand-alone services or as an add-on to your photo package — and our clients are seeing the difference it makes.


Why Drone Photography Matters

📸 Shows the Whole Picture

Aerial views reveal how a home sits on the lot, the size of the yard, driveway access, nearby amenities, and more.

📍 Highlights Location Value

Got a home near the lake, a golf course, or a park? Drone shots can make that a selling point by capturing proximity that listing photos alone can’t show.

📈 Boosts Clicks and Saves on MLS

Listings with drone imagery get more attention — especially in competitive markets. According to MLS data, homes with aerial photos are 68% more likely to sell faster than those without.

🎥 Adds a Cinematic Feel

Drone video footage allows potential buyers to “fly” over the property, offering a more immersive, branded feel — perfect for high-end listings or social media marketing.
