What’s a guy to do while the wife shops?
I’ll tell ya: Send it FPV-style straight through the iconic Spire atop @destinyusa. 🏙️
Instead of browsing racks, I’m diving into the skies, channeling my inner Maverick with every twist and turn.
The rush of ripping through that towering Spire, the city sprawling out below, the adrenaline kicking like a Top Gun dogfight—it’s the ultimate way to kill time while she hunts for deals.
Who needs shopping bags when you’ve got this view?

I heard this idea once—that time moves differently in heaven, and by the time our loved ones turn around to look for us, we’ll already be right behind them.
It’s a thought that’s stuck with me. It doesn’t erase the ache of missing someone, but it softens it somehow. It reminds me that love is bigger than time or distance—that what feels long and heavy here might be only a moment where they are.
Sharing this drone video of beautiful Strathmore in Syracuse, NY—a place full of light, quiet streets, and so many memories.
For anyone carrying loss, I hope this brings you a bit of peace.

Swipe right 👉 for a sky-high look at Clinton Square — because festival season is officially on in downtown Syracuse.
Syracuse Jazz Fest 39 kicks off this weekend, and the city is about to swing. 🎷✨Twelve bands. Multiple venues. One unforgettable weekend.
Executive Producer Frank Malfitano says the vibe is straight out of NYC’s golden jazz era — and if you’re downtown, you’ll feel it.
🎶 Pastabilities Legacy Band featuring Joe Carello, Jimmy Johns & Rick Montalbano
🎹 Tom Brigandi Trio at Mulrooney’s
🎺 ESP at Maxwells of Hanover Square
From Hanover to Armory Square, the music’s taking over. Grab a drink, follow the sound, and let the rhythm lead the way.

Swipe right ➡️to see Le Moyne College like you’ve never seen it before.
One of the best parts of flying my drone is discovering new perspectives—especially over places that mean the world to me. Le Moyne will always be home. And from this vantage point, you get something rare: the full beauty of campus and the city of Syracuse in the background. It’s a view that reminds me just how connected this place is to the energy and heartbeat of the city.
My time at Le Moyne shaped so much of who I am, and every time I’m back on the Heights, it feels like yesterday. This campus is such an asset to Syracuse—quietly powerful, deeply rooted, and full of heart. The other school on the hill, and proud of it. 💚

You know it’s officially that time of year when the sun starts to have a sound—like a scorching old western chime ringing through the hills. 🌞🌵🔥
We’re just ONE WEEK into summer and already flirting with record temps across Upstate New York. Feels like the sidewalks are sizzling, the AC is holding on for dear life, and even the trees are sweating.
Stay cool out there, hydrate like it’s your job, and maybe skip the blacktop for a bit. ☀️🥵💦

🔥 This heat wave got us all out here second guessing EVERYTHING.
Like…
“Maybe I do need to straighten my life out.”
“Maybe I should start going to church again.”
“Maybe Hell ain’t for me after all 🫠”
Shoutout to the grandma who said the devil could never handle CNY in June 😩😂

📸Swipe ➡️ to see this dazzling drone portrait taken in front of the historic Hall of Languages Building at @syracuseu! 🍊✨ The occasion? The Kappa Lambda Chapter of Delta Sigma Theta’s spectacular 300-person gala held at the Goldstein Auditorium in 2023. 🥂💃
Coordinating a photo with 300 beautifully dressed attendees is no small feat — a DRONE photo no less 🛸— but with that golden sunset and these amazing ladies, the result was pure magic. ✨📷
Special shout-out and thanks to @KappaLambda_DST, @easternregdst, and @dstinc1913 for making this moment shine, as well as to @Syracuseu for working with me to get all the necessary drone permits and permissions. Plus, a huge thank you to Heather Keets Wright and Natasha Benjamin for organizing it all! Who says you can’t take portraits with a drone?

We’re literally one day into summer… and already the entire Northeast is absolutely sweltering. 🥵
This oppressive, excessive heat isn’t going anywhere — it’s settling in for the next few days like an unwanted guest.
But seriously… why does it feel like we’re constantly swinging to the extremes?
Every year’s “the hottest on record”… until we break it again the next.
What gives?

When your AirPods connect to someone else’s iPhone on the job site… and suddenly Regulate starts playing—but in Spanish?! 🎶😂
Didn’t mean to steal the aux, but I might’ve just dropped the song of the summer.
This reel is an absolute banger. You’ve been warned. Love working with the @toptiercny team!

It looks like paradise…
But not everything is what it seems. 🌊
Tucked inside Green Lakes State Park in Fayetteville, NY is a place where science, beauty, and local legend collide.
They call it Deadman’s Point — a stunning natural reef surrounded by meromictic waters, where the lake’s layers never mix… and neither do the stories.
Some say visitors once vanished here…
Others believe an unseen current still pulls from below.
No one really knows what lies beneath.
But one thing’s for sure — this lake holds onto its secrets.
🧭 Deadman’s Point: where beauty meets the unexplained.
PSA:
Please respect the protected ecosystem. There are clearly posted signs directing visitors to stay off the reef and out of the water in this area. Swimming is only allowed at the designated beach. This drone footage was captured with full permission from Green Lakes State Park.

We’ve partnered with @sunyoswego to capture and share unique perspectives in and around campus — from student life on the lakeshore to nearby adventures that make this place feel like home.
Spots like Chimney Bluffs State Park — just 35 minutes from Oswego — are part of what makes this region so special. Towering cliffs, surreal views, and a reminder that college life here goes way beyond the classroom.
Whether you’re a student, alumni, or a Central New Yorker — put this place on your list of adventures to explore.
This is the latest in an ongoing series we’re creating together… and there’s plenty more on the way. 👀

Tucked behind the Museum of Science & Technology in Armory Square stands a slab of concrete you could easily overlook — weathered, quiet, and full of stories. It’s not just any slab… it’s a piece of the Berlin Wall.
Brought to Syracuse around 1990, just after the wall fell, this 12-foot-tall segment came here thanks to BettyAnn Kram, a founding member of the MOST and current board member. She helped secure the piece so the public could encounter history up close — not behind glass, but out in the open.
This is one of just four Berlin Wall segments in New York State, and one of only a few hundred scattered across the world. The graffiti-covered side once faced West Berlin — a canvas of resistance and hope. The other side? Completely blank. That’s the side that faced communist East Berlin, where freedom was out of reach.
For more than 30 years, this wall has stood here, largely unnoticed — no sign, no spotlight, no crowds. But its presence speaks volumes. It’s a reminder that even the biggest barriers can fall — and sometimes, pieces of them land quietly in places you’d never expect.
Now that you know… go see it. And maybe, tell someone else.
👉 And maybe it’s time we added a plaque — something to help future generations understand the weight of what’s quietly resting right outside our museum doors.

☀️ This Friday marks the first day of summer... and Syracuse, you know what that means — rooftop season is officially ON. 🏙️🍹
While we’ll miss the rooftop vibes at @thecommunion_ (thanks for the good times 💔), spots like @emerald.cocktailkitchen in Tipp Hill are ready to carry the torch with epic views, cocktails, and sunshine for days. 🌸🔥
So tag your rooftop crew, drop your favorite hangout in the CUSE, and let’s raise a glass to summer in the city. Here’s to sunsets, good company, and making every rooftop moment count. 🌇

There’s just something about downtown Syracuse at night. 🌃 The way the lights reflect off the streets, the quiet buzz of the city winding down—it’s a whole different kind of beautiful.
I’ve totally fallen in love with capturing nighttime timelapses with my drone lately, and this one over historic Hanover Square might be my favorite yet.
Flying here isn’t easy—it takes the right FAA approvals, your Part 107 license, and anti-collision lights on the drone. Not to mention navigating tight spaces, nearby buildings, and active roadways. It’s a mission every time…
But the payoff? Absolutely worth it.
To see this city come alive after dark—from high above—is something I’ll never get tired of.

A powerful look at the No Kings protest that took place near Destiny USA — lining both sides of Solar Street in Syracuse.
No matter where you stand politically, one thing we can all celebrate is the right to gather and express ourselves. That freedom belongs to everyone — and it’s moments like these that remind us what it looks like in action. 🇺🇸
Grateful to capture it from above.
