First time going to TRF tomorrow!

Hey everyone!

​I’m heading to the Texas Renaissance Festival for the very first time tomorrow and I can’t wait! I went to Sherwood Forest Faire last year and absolutely loved the vibe, so I’m super hyped to experience TRF for Opening Weekend and immerse myself in the community. I’ve got a shirt together to get into garb for the day, but I’m definitely looking forward to eating some amazing feast food and shopping around for new gear/garb to build out my full outfit!

​I’m bringing my camera along to capture the day and had a quick question for the photographers and veterans here:

​What’s the best etiquette for taking photos around the faire? I’d love to capture some great candid moments of the atmosphere and people, but I want to make sure I’m respecting everyone. Is candid street photography cool, or is it better to ask permission before snapping pictures of individuals in awesome garb?

​Pumped to explore the grounds, try some great food, meet new people, and soak it all in tomorrow! Any must-try food spots or favorite shop recommendations are welcome!

I realized when I was planning my trip that I didn't have a good visual of the actual village, so I wanted to share some shots of the structures and the atmosphere. It’s an incredible permanent site!

​I’ve got a lot more photos of the performers and the scenery over on my page. If you're a fan of the 'Forest Fae' or the knights, check them out!

​Hope this helps anyone planning their first trip to Sherwood!
