I know of a lot of wooded areas. What are you looking for or trying to accomplish?

No matter which way you go from Lewisville, East on Bus.121, North on 35E, North on Mill St., West on Main, South on Denton Tap, I can think of 1 or 2 areas each way to find a "woodsy" location. Why do you need help when you are surrounded by "woodsy" areas?

Ok. A place where young girls wont feel uncomfortable and we wont be ran out of? Doing a Group shot for Disney style and will have girls from ages 4 and up. Need branches to lie on and pose on..maybe some benches. Nowhere a lot of traffic is, but somewhere I will be allowed to shoot.x

This is the start of the peak season for Poison Ivy. Be careful in the woodsy areas.

That park looks open enough and some shady areas; good areas for the parents to set up H/M stations and snacks too. Looks perfect! Also has some bridges and nice trees. This is a Disney Villain shoot. All my girls are going to be dressed as Disney Villains. :) It is sort of a "Boutique" fashion shoot. See why I did not want a place where young girls would feel uncomfortable? lol. Big shoes and fancy clothing do not work well in massive amounts of woods. :)

I think that park would be perfect. It's set back, so a lot of people may not even know about it unless they live in the area. So, it's pretty quiet. It's got a great creek and wooded area, bridges, and a beautiful club house type thing they are building. I hate shooting at parks, but I actually did a second engagement session at this one b/c I liked it so much.
