In no particular order:

The Stanley Theater in Utica is a great setting, and it has that exact replica of the Grand Staircase from the Titanic.

Utica Train Station, a great photographer can make this setting look magical, and fans of Harry Potter will love it.

The Covered Bridge in Salisbury is a great outdoor setting, and invokes nostalgia.

Hamilton College campus, a beautiful setting especially in the fall, and don't forget Root Glen!
