Here are some good trouble shooting tips from Apple Support:

How to use AirDrop on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support

Make sure that the person you're sending to is nearby and within Bluetooth and Wi-Fi range.
Check that you and the person you're sending to have Wi-Fi and Bluetooth turned on. If either of you have Personal Hotspot on, turn it off.
Check if the person you're sending to has their AirDrop set to receive from Contacts Only. If they do, and you’re in their Contacts, they need to have your Apple ID's email address or mobile number in your contact card for AirDrop to work.

If these tips do not work, please provide more details. Are you getting an error message?
