Hi. I’m Chris Street and I founded up+up as I have a passion for both photography and technology. Working in digital advertising for many years I’ve always been exposed to latest and greatest in new technology and have been fascinated by drones - or quadcopters as they were originally known - for a number of years.

After purchasing my first drone I was immediately hooked, and I knew my passion was soon going to become a profession. Whether it’s capturing epic scenery from my honeymoon, memorable photos from friends special events or professional real estate or wedding drone photography, I love producing beautiful, creative images.

Doing the same as everyone else doesn’t interest me. I like to pursue bespoke, memorable work and keep improving along the way.

I fly within New Zealand Civil Aviation Rules and have liability insurance to cover my flights. I choose to fly a DJI Phantom 4 Pro and DJI Mavic Pro to get the best balance between picture quality and portability.
