Ya really want to know? Its easy, like the one below.
Have done several photo flights like this. You get everyone in the traffic area settled down, then fly a long final down to the runway like you are going to land, but then fly over the runway at about 50 above the ground at 250 knots (the fastest that we are legally allowed to fly below 10,000) then at the end of the runway pull up hard and the guy orbiting above snaps the photo.
