With the evolution of technology over the years, being the mega geek he is and wishing he were a fast jet pilot, Robbie discovered UAVs or Drones back in 2012. A couple of years later he attained
CAA permissions for commercial operations and began flying aerial cameras for use in creative media, survey, and DATA capture. Now, over a decade later, a very cool journey and the evolution of drone technology Robbie flies and operates for his profession
and for fun.

When not working with cameras, he can usually be found in the middle of nowhere, snowboarding, mountaineering, cycling, and playing with cameras.
