My Travel Journey to Fort Worth
Travel Journey after 39 years, I finally made my way back to where it all started—Fort Worth, Texas. Born there but raised in Iran, I never really got to experience the place I first called home. This year, I decided it was time to change that, and my uncle, Fuzzy, joined me on the trip. It was an unforgettable few days filled with nostalgia, incredible food, and exploring the heart of Texas.
A Tiny Home Stay & A Walk Down Memory Lane
From February 1st to the 4th, Fuzzy and I stayed in a cozy tiny home cabin near Dallas. It was the perfect base for our adventures, offering both comfort and a sense of simplicity that matched the trip’s reflective nature.
One of the first places we visited was Fuzzy’s old high school in Fort Worth—the very school he attended after moving to the U.S. from Iran as a teenager. Walking through those halls with him, hearing his stories, and imagining what life was like for him back then was surreal.
Exploring Fort Worth & Dallas
No visit to Fort Worth is complete without a stop at the famous Stockyards. It was cool to see the Western heritage come to life—the brick streets, historic buildings, and of course, the longhorn cattle. It felt like stepping into a different era.
In Dallas, we checked out one of its quirkiest landmarks—the Giant Eyeball sculpture downtown. A random but fun sight to see! We also caught a breathtaking sunset over downtown Fort Worth, which painted the city in stunning golden hues.
One of the most memorable spots was the Fort Worth Water Gardens—a fascinating urban waterfall that flows into the ground, creating a peaceful yet powerful atmosphere. Standing there, listening to the cascading water, was a moment of reflection and appreciation.
The Best Part? The Food!
Texas is known for its barbecue, and we made sure to indulge. From smoky brisket to perfectly seasoned ribs, every meal was a feast. The flavors were unreal, and I honestly lost count of how many amazing dishes we had.
Final Thoughts & My Passion for Travel Photography
This trip was more than just sightseeing—it was about reconnecting with my birthplace, sharing memories with my uncle, and embracing the journey that brought me here. As a travel photographer specializing in weddings and elopements, I love capturing the magic of destinations, whether it’s Texas, Colorado, or anywhere else in the world.
If you’re looking for a photographer to document your special moments, whether it’s an elopement in the mountains or a destination wedding, I’d love to be a part of your journey. Let’s create something incredible together!
