Hi, I'm Ray Horton, founder of Cohort Aerial and an FAA-certified drone pilot dedicated to delivering high-quality aerial imaging, mapping, and inspection services across the Gulf Coast.
As a U.S. Navy veteran, I bring professionalism, precision, and attention to detail to every project. I personally manage every step of the process, from mission planning and FAA compliance to flight operations and final deliverables, ensuring safe, efficient, and dependable results.
Whether you're documenting construction progress, marketing a property, or inspecting critical infrastructure, I'm committed to helping you make better decisions from a better perspective.
Let’s discuss your project.

We discuss
You tell me what you’re trying to capture. I’ll ask the right questions, check the location, and make sure everything is safe and achievable.
Aerial footage has a way of changing how people see a place or project. I enjoy helping clients get that perspective — whether it’s showcasing a property, tracking progress, or telling a visual story from above.
Good aerial work isn’t just about flying a drone. It’s about planning, care, and delivering something genuinely useful.
I use modern, professional-grade drones capable of capturing sharp photos and smooth, stabilized video — suitable for both creative and commercial projects.
I choose equipment based on what works best for the job, not just what looks impressive on paper.
