Denver Botanic Gardens Chatfield Farms Virtual Tour: Deer Creek Stables

The most flexible covered space on the property, and the one that handles weather best.

Stables give you height, timber and open sides — a combination that photographs well in almost any conditions and gives us somewhere to work when the forecast turns.

It is the space we are most relieved to have on a day with a bad sky, and it does not feel like a fallback in the pictures.

Photographing at Deer Creek Stables

We shot this tour, which means we have lit and walked this space ourselves. If you are weighing it up against the other options here, our Chatfield Farms photographer’s guide covers the whole property — the light, the timing and how a day actually flows through it.
