Commercial Photography


Dallas Heritage Village is a favorite destination for commercial photographers and advertising agencies. Our landscape architecture and historic buildings are the perfect backdrop for product and catalog shoots. Because the museum is closed to the public on Mondays, it’s a perfect day for the trade to come in and take advantage of our beautiful setting. We have reasonable rates and minimums for commercial photographers. The parking lot in front of the Park Cities Heritage House is perfect for RVs and mobile crew parking. To contract a photo shoot, contact the Director of Sales.


Video & Film


The Dallas Heritage Village has been featured in numerous TV commercials, videos and films. In the past few years, our grounds have been used to shoot scenes from The Good Guys and various documentaries. Video and film production require advanced planning so that we can meet the needs of your production team while remaining open to the public. For more information, please contact the Director of Sales.
