2020 was many things, although not all of them were bad in my book. “What did you do with your 2020,” has been a resounding question — even half a year into 2021. The pandemic, social, and continuing political upheaval have all had a profound impact on almost everyone. Learning to expect the unexpected and pivot has been a resounding theme. Early in 2020, I altered course, choosing to focus on my freelance business, and moved back to the family home in the small town of Rocky Ford, Georgia. I spent time learning new skills that I didn’t have time to learn working a full-time job. One such skill was aerial photography. Earlier, in 2019, I had purchased an off-brand Chinese drone for my dad to use on the family farm. I had always been fascinated with the drone-tech and started to wonder if I could incorporate aerial photography into my business. I spent time flying for fun on several farms in the area and even monitored a controlled burn operation. In March of this year, I received my remote pilot license to operate professionally, and I am just beginning to tap into the real estate market.
