What started as one guy with a drone and a passion for capturing Syracuse from above has grown into Central New York’s go-to content studio—trusted by major brands, institutions, and thousands of followers alike.

Founded by Aiden McGuire in 2015, Aiden Media was born from a love of photography, storytelling, and flight. What began as a one-man operation offering professional aerial imagery has evolved into a full-scale content creation agency—offering everything from cinematic commercial video production to scroll-stopping social media content and influencer marketing that moves the needle.

Over the years, we’ve grown our services, our team, and our impact—while staying true to our Syracuse roots. Today, we’re proud to be the CommunityVotes SYRACUSE Platinum Award Winner for Social Media Marketing, with a proven track record of helping brands connect with their audiences in real, meaningful ways.

We’re creators, storytellers, and strategic partners. Our team blends creative vision with technical expertise to deliver content that doesn’t just look good—it performs. From immersive FPV flythroughs and aerial time-lapses, to full-service campaigns powered by our engaged community of over 49,000 followers, we help our clients stand out in a crowded digital world.
