Helicopters
TAKING YOU TO NEW HEIGHTS - PILOTS WHO KNOW THEIR SH*T
We work with local helicopter companies who know our mountains, glaciers & lakes through and through. These skilful bunch have been flying around our landscapes for generations, and know exactly what’s up.
Rest assured that you are in the best of hands, even if its your first time flying or unsure of how it all works. They have safety measures in place to ensure everyone on board feels at ease with a comfortable ride to and from any location. Our pilots fly in only safe conditions - they also have loads of sneaky back up locations up their sleeves should we need to change it up on the fly.

A LITTLE BIT OF LUXURY
We all love a bit of luxury right? We weave only the top notch services & elements into your day whilst keeping it humble. Intimate & small yet the perfect measure of opulence to compliment a celebration of connection & love.
KIND WORDS
From the day I first got in touch, Kate was incredibly helpful and genuinely cared about making our day special. When unexpected complications arose, they found alternatives with us and in the end everything worked out very well. We had never done a photoshoot before and were a bit worried we’d feel uncomfortable in front of the camera, but Kate made us feel at ease. We chose Daisy & Moss because not only did we love the style of photography and wanted beautiful memories captured, but an outstanding service and a fun day was had all round. Thank you so much for making every aspect perfect! xx
