You need a permit when filming on public property, meaning property owned by city, county, or state government; the film commission handles it case by case as the official city/county liaison. Insurance documentation is part of the paperwork. Casual handheld personal photography needs nothing. Verify current requirements with the film commission.
Drone / airspace
Commercial drone work requires FAA Part 107; local property rules add restrictions
Local takeoff, landing, and park restrictions sit on top of FAA airspace rules. For Part 107 and drone law, see Drone Authority.
Street / public space
Yes: you can photograph what is visible from public space in the US
Private property sets its own rules regardless of city law.
Practical notes
- Beale Street is a managed entertainment district; commercial shoots there need district permission on top of any government permit.
- Graceland and Sun Studio are private property with their own strict photo policies.
- Riverfront parks are managed separately from general city property; ask the film commission which manager covers your spot.
Guidance, not legal advice
Rules change and enforcement varies. Confirm with the issuing authority before you shoot. Drone law depth lives at Drone Authority.
