**Wildlife Wanted**

Knottie1474743423

Hi there! 

I really want a sense of whimsy in our engagement pictures and this one particuallary memorable weekend getaway involving wild deer that would walk up to you came to mind. I'd love to somehow orchestrate a similar feeling of wonder in a natural environment (no petting zoos)

Here's the tough question...does a place like this exist in/around Dallas, Tx?

Thanks!

I grew up in the country on tons of acres, and I never once had a deer come within 100 yards of me. Your best bet is to maybe try to go to a place like Arbuckle Wilderness, but even then I think you have to stay in the car.

There is a free public zoo in Gainesville, but I'm not sure that's what you want. It's very small.
