Hello, my name is Christopher Aylward. I'm often asked what drives me. Simply put, I love to create. Whether behind the lens of my cinema camera, at the controls of my drones or at the workstation during post-production, I love to bring visuals to life.
I'm passionate about the entire process of creating. The stages of planning, location scouting, capturing the visuals and process of post-production. I enjoy every aspect.
I also enjoy meeting new people, and would love to sit down with you to discuss your project. I have the talent, tools and resources to bring your project to life.
I'm passionate about what I do and have a personality that makes it easy to conduct business. It's all about the process.
Let's talk.

Here's a short list of some of the gear I use:

Please note that, as a fully trained and registered drone pilot,
I fly within the rules and regulations laid out by Transport Canada.
Should your project require me to fly outside these rules and regulations,
I will have to seek a Special Flight Operations Certificate (SFOC) prior to shooting.
This can be discussed during our initial meeting.
