Service Description

For the first time ever, you have the opportunity to photograph with Lance Krueger, one of the top-published whitetail deer photographers in North America. During this workshop, Lance will teach a very limited number of people how he gets the up-close photos of the spooky, heavily-hunted whitetail bucks that are so popular on his social media channels, and have been published thousands of times on the covers and inside the largest national hunting magazines. Lance will host this workshop of only six people at the legendary Las Raices Ranch deep in the South Texas Brush Country. The waiting list to hunt this four-thousand-plus acres is measured in years. But by joining this workshop, a few will get to skip to the front of the line, and experience the thrill of seeing and photographing the bucks of Las Raices at 20 to 30 yards, and eye-level. This slice of big buck heaven is located in the famed Golden Triangle, the hotbed of big buck production in the state of Texas. Las Raices is known for using cutting-edge management practices implemented for the benefit of the 100% native Texas whitetail deer herd on this property, which yields multiple Boone & Crockett sized bucks (with some over 200”) most every year. Lance will teach attendees the techniques he's developed over the last thirty-five plus years from “up close and personal” experiences he's had with undisturbed, mature whitetail bucks. Participants will then be able to practice applying what they learn on this large, big buck paradise. This will have maximized opportunities to photograph the biggest bucks on this property, photographing them with the best light and backgrounds available at each spot, each morning and evening over three days. Furthermore, they may also have the chance to photograph other wildlife where Lance's techniques will work as well. For three nights, participants will stay at the Las Raices Lodge, and enjoy family-style meals prepared by the ranch's deer camp cook. From the lodge, all attendees will be just minutes away from matching wits with the biggest trophy bucks on the property. Between each morning and afternoon photo shoots, the participants will be taught Lance's techniques for how he gets his incredible closeups of mature, big-antlered whitetail bucks. Each workshop participant will get a one-on-one, morning or afternoon sit with Lance in the field.
