Carter’s Eye View

Meet Carter Borst, our very first drone pilot at BorstPhoto. At just 13 years old and still navigating middle school hallways, Carter brings an energy and enthusiasm to every shoot that’s truly infectious. When he isn’t capturing stunning aerial footage, you can find him riding his dirt bike over to his friends house—always chasing the next adventure. He also makes for a great Polaroid Taker!

Despite his age, Carter already has a keen eye for framing and movement. His passion for drones started long before he joined the team; he spent weekends learning flight controls, studying camera settings, and practicing aerial maneuvers in our backyard. Now, he’s channeling that dedication into high-flying shots that add a fresh perspective to our portrait, event, and lifestyle sessions.

We’re proud to have Carter on board as BorstPhoto’s official drone photographer. He’s our go-to for cinematic overheads, sweeping landscape views, and dynamic promotional videos. His youthful curiosity keeps us experimenting with new angles and creative techniques, ensuring every project stands out above the rest.

Stop by our gallery to see Carter’s latest work—and keep an eye on this rising star. Whether he’s hovering over a wedding ceremony or scouting a perfect sunset vista, Carter’s footage reminds us all that sometimes the best view comes from looking at the world a little bit higher.
