BED & BREAKFASTS
BED & BREAKFASTS
While capturing drone footage of pretty much anything for pretty much any client has the potential to be fun, I can honestly say that Bed and Breakfasts are probably my favorite subject matter! Especially when you are lucky enough to schedule an autumn session!

Drone shoot for:

THE DOMINION HOUSE BED & BREAKFAST
The beautiful Dominion House in Blooming Grove, NY is one of Orange County’s most popular stays. And for good reason! It is a gem built in 1880 that offers endless charm and some of the best amenities around including a beautiful pool area, a hot tub, and a library to name just a few.

The owners had me do their first shoot in the summer of 2023. They requested a summer drone session so that we could get lovely aerial footage of the pool and its landscaping. We are hoping to do another session next autumn in order to capture the walking trails in peak foliage!

If you are planning on being in Orange County, NY and are on the hunt for an amazing stay, check out The Dominion House : (845) 496.1826.

YALE MANOR BED & BREAKFAST & YURTS

In the summer of 2024 I was contacted by the owners of Yale Manor Bed & Breakfast and Yurts to do a nice summer drone photo session of their bed and breakfast, yurts and their pier on Seneca Lake.

Although the trees on the property made capturing drone photos and videos somewhat of a challenge, we (the owners and myself) were pleased with what we got. The rest of the property including the yurts were easy and fun to capture.

Part of the reason for the aerial photo was to capture some photos for a listing! The owners were in the process of trying to sell the property to be closer to family. I have not met the new owners but I can tell you that if you’ve never seen a yurt, that alone would be worth a stay! These yurts are especially nice. You can see pictures of them from the inside on their website: Yale Manor B&B.

Drone shoot for:

FINGER LAKES BED & BREAKFAST
Patrick Barnes, owner of THIRTY PINES TREE CARE, LLC, contacted me in the early summer of 2024 to do a drone shoot to capture some aerial video and photos of him working a job on a residential home in Ithaca.

I remember two things about that day quite distinctly.

First: The lighting was absolutely perfect. Which was unusual for the time of day it was (roughly 1pm). I even did the entire shoot in normal mode because I didn’t foresee myself having to do much in the way of color correction and, regarding color grading, Patrick was looking for as “natural a look as possible”. All original footage was shot at 4k and 25fps.

Second: The other thing that really stood out to me was that I would NEVER want to be in this line of work! I am not particularly afraid of heights….I would just be terrified to mess up someone’s property with falling limbs! That said, Patrick did an excellent job! Although I didn’t stay for the entirety of clean up etc., so…I suppose anything could have happened.

Many thanks to Patrick for the opportunity to capture my first tree service. Should you need tree work, you can reach Patrick at: (607) 342.7041.
