Why I’ve added the DJI Mini 4 Pro to my kit – and what it means for my clients.

A new tool, the same high standards

In my ongoing effort to offer the best possible service to clients, I’ve invested in a new drone – the DJI Mini 4 Pro. This little powerhouse weighs in at under 250g, which may not sound like much, but it’s a game-changer when it comes to operational flexibility, especially in busy environments or built-up areas.

But let’s be clear – just because it’s small doesn’t mean it’s any less capable.

The Mini 4 Pro is equipped with high-quality imaging tech and intelligent flight modes, making it ideal for capturing dynamic, professional footage. It’s particularly useful on projects where a larger drone might be restricted due to location or proximity to uninvolved people.

Why this drone? It aligns with my values

When I choose equipment, I don’t just go for the latest gadget – I think about how it fits with the way I work and the values that underpin my business. For me, that means:

  • Working in partnership with clients to deliver tailored, effective imagery

  • Prioritising safety and professionalism, always

  • Adapting to meet each project's needs without compromising quality

The DJI Mini 4 Pro allows me to do all three.

Because it’s under 250g, I have more freedom to operate in locations where heavier drones might be restricted. However, and this is important, I still approach every shoot with the same level of planning, risk assessment, and attention to detail that I apply under my GVC and CAA Operational Authorisation.

Whether I’m flying under those permissions or not, my priority is, and always will be, doing things properly, safely, and with purpose.

How clients benefit

Here’s how this investment helps the businesses I work with:

  • Faster turnaround for drone content in areas with stricter regulations

  • More location possibilities, including urban environments or closer proximity to people

  • Same high standards of image quality and storytelling

  • No compromise on safety or legal compliance

If you're planning a project where aerial footage could make a difference – whether it's a construction update, property development, tourism campaign, or team profile – this drone gives us more options to get creative, legally and safely.

Final thought

This isn't about replacing my existing kit, it's about adding flexibility and enhancing my service. As with every tool I use, the Mini 4 Pro helps me do one thing better: deliver results that matter to my clients.
