Experience Above All

AirMax Imaging is a professional aerial imaging company based in Rancho Cordova, CA. What started as a hobby in 1986, it quickly evolved into much more, progressing into airshows from small boy scout shows up to The Sacramento International Airshow at Rancho Murietta CA, McClellan Air Museum and Mather AFB.

We moved into the commercial market the second day the FAA 107 License became available, August 30, 2016. Since then we specialized in delivering sharp, dynamic imagery with purpose.

We will never use Ai, any text, call or email is answered by California based person.

Our senior pilot / project manager is also an instructor for Drone Aviate, providing UAS instruction for Vets, private individuals and companies. From basic flight skills to advanced flight. Classes include, 107, 107 Enterprise, Mapping, Structural Inspections, Security, and Cinematography.

Purpose-Driven, Perspective-Led

AirMax Imaging was built on one simple idea: to capture more than just images - capture intention.

Every project is approached with a commitment to understanding what our clients want to achieve, and delivering results that help get them there.

What sets us apart:

  • Longstanding Expertise: Operating drones since the early days of aerial tech, with a track record that spans industries and decades.
  • Data Security First: Sensitive content is handled with care and stored on an isolated, non-networked system to maintain confidentiality.
  • Goal-Oriented Workflows: Our process starts by listening and ends with results tailored to your mission, not a template.
