Photoshoot Details

  • This was taken on a hot summer day in 2024
  • Not for the feint hearted, the deer can be a little agressive and the smell of the deer droppings may get to you. But if you are comfortable with wild animals, then this place can be fun.
  • There are plenty of shrines to visit, many in which you’ll need to pay to enter.
  • There is a botanical Japanese garden inside that we didn’t get to visit but can add to the photoshoot locations.
