About Kern County
Kern County's energy landscape is unlike any other in California — the Kern River oil fields, the Tehachapi wind farms, and the expanding solar installations in the western county create an energy infrastructure aerial photography environment of significant industrial and documentary value. The Tehachapi Pass Wind Farm — one of the world's first utility-scale wind farms — provides wind energy aerial photography subjects that communicate California's clean energy transition.
The agricultural southern San Joaquin Valley — grapes, citrus, almonds, pistachios, and vegetables — provides agricultural aerial photography across Kern County's cultivated lands. The vineyards of the Kern River and Tehachapi appellations, while smaller than Napa or Sonoma, generate wine country aerial photography demand for the county's growing wine industry.
Bakersfield and the greater metropolitan area generate commercial real estate, construction documentation, and corporate facility aerial photography. The Tejon Ranch — one of California's largest private landholdings — and the planned Tejon Ranch community development generate construction documentation aerial photography.
