THE WORK
I’ve spent years flying my drone over some incredible places.
Chasing views. Chasing beauty. Chasing “epic.”
And somehow, I never came here.
Chittenango Falls State Park has been right in front of me my whole life. Close enough to visit anytime, which usually means never.
But the moment I finally flew it… everything stopped.
From above, this place is raw.
Powerful.
Honest.
Water carving its way through time like it owns the land.
And it made me ask myself:
Why do we always look far away for wonder when some of the most breathtaking places are in our own backyard?
I’ve filmed all over.
But this one humbled me.
Sometimes you don’t need a plane ticket.
You just need to show up.

Downtown Syracuse in the fall feels like the city is taking a deep breath. From high above with my drone, the streets transform into a patchwork of reds, golds, and burnt orange as the trees wrap the historic buildings like a warm sweater.
You see the copper roofs and brick facades glowing in the afternoon sun, the tiny figures walking through Clinton Square with coffee in hand, and the way the Onondaga Creek reflects the colors like a mirror. There’s this perfect mix of energy and calm. The city is alive, but there’s a softness to it this time of year.
Flying over it all reminds me why I love this place. Syracuse doesn’t just show you fall. It surrounds you in it.

There is a rhythm to life in Upstate New York.
Summer showed up in all its glory this year with long warm nights and golden sunsets, and just when we thought it was over, we were gifted a second summer with that stretch of late-season heat. It felt like the season didn’t want to say goodbye.
Then fall quietly stepped in.
The air softened. The light shifted. The hillsides started to glow with color.
Now the world around us is transforming with vibrant reds, oranges, and golds spreading across the landscape. From high above places like Woodland Reservoir in Strathmore, the view feels endless, like the whole region is painted. Look at those rolling hills of the valley!
Our seasons are short, but that is why we cherish them.
Every view. Every leaf. Every moment.
Upstate New York does not just change with the seasons, it tells a story.

Tonight, the Syracuse skyline is speaking from the heart.
The Crouse Health clocktower is glowing pink and the Syracuse University JMA Wireless Dome is lit in blue in honor of Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance Day.
These colors are more than light.
They represent love, grief, and the memory of little lives gone too soon.
They honor:
💗 those born sleeping
💙 those we carried but never met
💗 those we held but could not bring home
💙 those we brought home but couldn’t stay
To every family who has faced this unimaginable loss, you are not alone. Your babies are remembered. Your stories matter.
Thank you to Crouse Health and Syracuse University for recognizing this important day and choosing to visibly support the families in our community. This act of compassion brings awareness, comfort, and unity to so many.
Tonight, our city shines with remembrance. 💙💗

Franklin Square is a place where history and progress live side by side.
Restored brick buildings, tree-lined walkways, and a neighborhood that continues to grow with new restaurants, businesses, and jaw-dropping places to live.
Rising above it all is my favorite landmark in Syracuse, the iconic Franklin Square water tower.
While everything around it has evolved, the water tower has remained the same. It stands as a timeless symbol of the neighborhood’s character and heritage.
It is more than architecture. It is a storyteller.
In winter, it wears a crown of snow.
At sunset, it glows with golden light.
On calm evenings, it reflects perfectly in the fountain below.
Every season gives it a new personality, but it always steals the spotlight.
If you have not visited Franklin Square lately, take a stroll and soak in the history. And when you do, do not forget to look up at this iconic beauty.

I grew up here. I went to school here. Like a lot of people, I thought I had to leave to “make it,” so I did. But something kept pulling me back. The memories. The community. The way this place just feels like home.
I came back to Syracuse to start a family, and the more I see it from above, the more I realize how underrated it really is. It’s not just snow or sunsets. It’s long summer nights by the water, historic architecture around every corner, four seasons that each tell their own story, and some of the most genuine people you will ever meet.
This place shaped me. And now I get to share its beauty with the world.

Sometimes you need a different perspective to really feel the pride of where you come from.
Flying high above Corcoran High School, my alma mater, I was hit with a wave of nostalgia. This field is where fall Friday nights felt electric. Where the whole community showed up. Where everything felt possible.
And then you look beyond the stadium and see Strathmore wrapped around it like a warm hug. Charming streets. Historic homes. Trees exploding with color. The kind of neighborhood that feels like a postcard this time of year.
The foliage isn’t just pretty… it’s powerful. It reminds us that change can be beautiful. That seasons don’t last forever, so we soak them in. And that Syracuse isn’t just where we live. It’s home.
How lucky are we to have views like this…and stories rooted this deep.

Wegmans got me living two lives:
In the aisles I’m Gordon Ramsay…
At checkout I’m applying for financial aid.
I went in for “just a few things.”
I came out calculating if I actually bought the store.
Why does my cart look like a snack…
…but my total looks like a down payment?!
Groceries shouldn’t require a budget meeting and a prayer circle
If Wegmans had a loyalty program for trauma, I’d be Diamond Elite.

High above Tipperary Hill sits one of Syracuse’s true landmarks: Burnet Park Golf Course.
It’s only nine holes, but it’s packed with history and beauty.
Built in 1901, it’s one of the oldest public courses in the country and one of just a few city-owned courses we have left.
From the first tee, the view says it all…downtown skyline, the Dome, and in the fall, a sea of orange and red trees surrounding every fairway.
Generations have learned the game here. Locals call it our little Augusta for a reason. When the foliage hits, there’s nowhere in the city that looks like this.
Burnet Park isn’t just a golf course. It’s Tipperary Hill pride and a Syracuse classic.

This isn’t the Netherlands. This isn’t Brazil. This isn’t the Maldives. This isn’t Norway…
But it COULD fool you.
Every scene, every escape…right here in Central New York. From rolling tulip fields to misty waterfalls, crystal-clear lakes to dramatic mountain overlooks, this region has the kind of beauty that makes you stop, stare, and wonder how it’s all in our backyard.
You don’t have to cross an ocean for breathtaking landscapes. Central New York has it all. You just have to know where to look.

At the heart of the Finger Lakes, surrounded by cliffs that rise nearly 400 feet, stands Taughannock Falls, one of the tallest single-drop waterfalls east of the Rocky Mountains. Its waters plunge 215 feet, even higher than Niagara, cutting through layers of shale and sandstone that have been shaped for millions of years.
On a calm autumn morning, I sent the drone above the gorge as the valley came alive. The roar of the falls echoed through the forest, mist floated between the trees, and the sunlight caught the gold and crimson of the leaves. From above, it felt like stepping into a painting, where time slows and nature speaks for itself.

There are places you visit, and then there are places you feel.
Taughannock Falls State Park is one of the few places I’ve ever been that truly feels spiritual.
The roar of the water, the mist rising into the air, the canyon walls painted in autumn colors…it’s humbling. Standing there, surrounded by that much beauty, you can’t help but feel connected to something greater.
This drone photograph was captured with permission from NY State Parks, and every time I look at it, I can still feel the energy of that moment. The calm, the power, and the peace all at once.

Man, I’ll never forget walking out of the old Carrier Dome with my dad after a game. The doors would open and that rush of air would blast you in the face.
Hats flying, people laughing, everyone trying to fight their way out. I’d grab his hand like my life depended on it.
It sounds small, but that wind tunnel was part of the magic. That’s what made the Dome the Dome.
Today’s students will never experience that moment, and that’s wild to me. Because it wasn’t just air. It was a memory. It was Syracuse. 🍊

My credit card physically winces every time we walk into Wegmans.
How did a quick grocery run turn into $75 per bag?
Whoever said inflation was over clearly hasn’t tried leaving Wegmans with more than two items lately.

From above, Green Lake feels otherworldly. A pool of emerald wrapped in fire, where the water glows against a forest painted in golds and reds.
This isn’t your ordinary lake. It’s one of only a handful in the world that’s meromictic, meaning its layers never mix. What you see on the surface is as still and untouched as it’s been for thousands of years. That’s part of what makes it shimmer like glass, reflecting fall in a way that feels almost unreal.
Green Lakes State Park has a quiet kind of power. It humbles you, calms you, and reminds you how lucky we are to call Upstate New York home.
