In the world of aviation photography, air-to-air photography is definitely the most spectacular and adventurous way to photograph aircraft or helicopters. As the name suggests, air-to-air photography is the art of photographing airplanes or helicopters as they fly and from another aircraft.

Night shoots are among one of the most popular and challenging aspects within aviation photography. For example, special photo shoots are organized around the world at sunset and in the evenings where static aircraft and/or helicopters are specially lit so photographers can capture them in the most creative way possible.
