Location specifics
Whitetail Woods Regional Park features some steep hills leading to the best shooting spots, so bringing an extra pair of walking shoes is a great idea. We can swap shoes once we reach our location. Be prepared for a short 3-5 minute hike, making this spot less ideal for older family members or those with mobility concerns. However, for those up for a little adventure, the views and natural beauty make it well worth the effort!
Bathrooms and parking
Whitetail Woods Regional Park has bathrooms on-site, but they may be a bit of a walk from our shooting locations. Plan for outfit changes in your vehicle or allow extra time to reach the restrooms. For sessions with babies, bringing a stroller is a great idea to make navigating the trails easier. The park also has a large parking lot with plenty of space. A few days before your session, we’ll coordinate a meet-up spot to ensure a smooth start to your shoot.
