Photoshop now has a built-in font recognition feature as of CC 2015.5 called Match Font.

Simply go to the Type menu and select Match Font and then crop the area to the font you'd like to try to recognize.

Additionally here are other resources to help you identify a font. (I pulled this list from a Graphic Design Stack Exchange Meta Post)

There is a free Photoshop plugin Font Detector that uses WhatTheFont service to recognize fonts on an image inside a selection.
