Hey, I’m Peter Heinzl, and I’ve been hooked on aviation for as long as I can remember. My passion for flying took root at the young age of 6, and from that point on, I knew I wanted to be in the skies. By the time I was a sophomore in high school, I was already taking flight lessons at my local airport. After a year and a half of training and lessons, I achieved my Private Pilot’s License in 2010 at just 17 years old. One fun fact I like to share? I started flying a plane before I ever drove a car.

But life, as it does, brought its ups and downs. Things were steady until a big shift changed everything. In college, I met someone, got married, and eventually went through a tough divorce. That experience left me dealing with depression and struggling to find my footing again. Aviation, the thing I once loved deeply, felt like it was slipping away from me. I was desperate for something that would bring back a sense of purpose.

That’s when drones came into the picture. Around 2017, shortly after my divorce, I decided to try my hand at drone flying. My first drone reignited a spark in me—it felt like a whole new way to explore the world and get back into aviation from a different angle. I spent countless hours capturing the landscapes of the United States, and the thrill of flying returned. Soon, I discovered that drone photography was growing, with more people and businesses needing skilled drone pilots than ever before.

With my passion reignited, I wanted to do more. My entrepreneurial side kicked in, and I started this website. My goal? To help new and seasoned drone pilots develop their photography skills. Whether it’s learning the best techniques, editing tricks, or understanding what makes a great shot, I’m here to help you elevate your skills.

Today, I’m dedicated to sharing everything I’ve learned so you can reach new heights in your own drone journey. Thanks for stopping by, and I hope you find something here that helps you get the most out of your drone.
