Drone photography in Parkesburg

Parkesburg is a small borough on the old main line, sitting where the county starts turning into Lancaster farmland. Land, property and the occasional working building.

It is a railroad town, and the rail line still cuts it in half — which matters for photography, because a lot of what people want to show sits on one side of a corridor you cannot cross on foot. The camera does not have that problem.

The ground around Parkesburg is open and rolling, so property work here is land-led: the frame that sells is almost always the one that shows the whole parcel, the hedgerows and how the ground actually falls, not a closer view of the house.

Being at the western edge of the county puts Parkesburg within easy reach of Lancaster County work, which is worth mentioning if you have two properties either side of the line — a single trip is a different conversation than two.
