I'm Shaun Collins, FAA Part 107 certified drone pilot and owner of One World U, based in Vermont's Northeast Kingdom. I operate a professional DJI fleet, including the Matrice 4T for thermal and inspection work and the Mavic 4 Pro for high-resolution aerial photography and cinematic videography.

From commercial film production and real estate showcases to solar and energy infrastructure inspection, I'm equipped to handle the full range of aerial work and serve as your single point of contact from flight planning through final deliverable. I hold DroneDeploy certifications as both a Solar Analyst and Oil & Gas Analyst.

With 18 years of professional camera experience behind me, I bring compositional skill and storytelling instinct to every flight, not just technical execution.

Based in Vermont's Northeast Kingdom with regional roots in New England, I'm available for national and international travel. Wherever the job is, I can get there. Fully insured. If you have a job, reach out. Negotiation is welcome.
