How do I check if drone photography is allowed at a location?

Every listing shows its drone policy under "Drone policy & permissions" on the location page. If it says drones aren't allowed or requires clearance, message the owner directly before planning a shoot around one.

Do I need permission for a commercial shoot?

It depends on the location. Many public places, heritage sites and even some private venues require separate permission for commercial work compared to personal shoots — check the listing's permission notes, and when in doubt, ask the owner directly through the contact options on the page.

How do I contact a location owner?

Every listing shows the fastest available option — WhatsApp or a direct call if the owner's provided one, or a structured inquiry through the site otherwise. You'll find these options in the booking card on the listing page.

What's the difference between a Location and a Studio listing?

Locations are real places — outdoor spots, heritage sites, villas, and similar — while Studios are dedicated indoor spaces built specifically for shoots, with things like backdrops, lighting rigs, or sound treatment already set up.

Is it free to list my own location or studio?

Yes, listing is free. Every submission goes through a quick review before it goes live, and you can manage inquiries and edit your listing anytime from your dashboard.

Can I book a location directly through the platform?

Right now the platform connects you with the owner — pricing, availability and the actual booking are agreed directly between you and them, not processed through the site itself.
