Iron Horse Trail in Fort Worth is a must go- to spot for any local photographer. It's like a mini outdoor studio with several different areas to capture photos for families, seniors, engagements and more!
My favorite scenes in this area are:
-Wooden Bridge
-Wooden fencing
-Framing trees
-Large rocks for seating
-Cactus
-Textured/colored flowers
-Railroad tracks
-Brick wall
... ALL IN ONE AREA!
Located just off the public parking area behind the Hotel Drover entrance, you can park on 23rd street free of cost. I parked in the public lot (because I am a rule follower) BUT my clients parked on the street in spots along 23rd and there were multiple spots open and worked out great.
When I last visited here in November... it was busy! Lot's of family photography sessions going on around 4pm. The Stockyards also had concerts going on at Billy Bob's Texas. Thanks to my client who let me know the FW Stockyards had quite a few shows going on the ENTIRE weekend. Luckily, because this spot is off the main stockyards drag, the crowd wasn't hectic. I would keep in mind, there are horse tours that come through the trail in that time of day as well as the Grapevine Vintage Railroad.
Overall, a really fun experience with everything available at this spot. The family even stayed after our shoot to check out the stockyards while they were in the area.
FYI- It is not mapped as
"Iron Horse Trail" so I pinned my location as NE 23rd Street Fort Worth Texas 76164.
