Stephanie Patterson - Colorful and Creative Florida Food, Cocktail and Travel Photographer
Photo by Arlene Laboy

Hello! I’m Stephanie, and I’m a Florida photographer based in the Central Florida area specializing in food, cocktails, and travel for restaurants and brands in the tourism and travel industry.

My creative passion and desire to help others are what drives me. They are at the heart of everything I do personally and professionally.

I balance my time between my dual passions in life: photography and writing.

Whether that takes the form of photographing beachy destinations and local restaurants for travel assignments and my Florida travel blog, Travel Taste Click, capturing engaging images for my one of a kind food photography clients, using my unique talents to shed light on causes I care about or supporting other creatives, I’m at my best when I’m utilizing my creative skills to help others.

I have 10+ years of experience in the photography industry and love creating professional, creative, and custom images for my clients.

I especially enjoy marrying my photography, editing, and writing talents together to provide clients and publications with unique and valuable content.

Interested in working together? Please Email me and let me know a little bit about you and what you have in mind. Let’s get coffee (or tacos)!

My Story

I first fell in love with photography when my grandfather’s Minolta film camera was passed down to me for a high school photography course. I followed my passion by studying photography in college, and graduated from The Art Institute of Pittsburgh in 2010.

When I moved to Central Florida in 2012, I hit my stride with photography. Several years later, I made the leap and transformed my business into a creative career instead of a part-time side job. After discovering my love for photographing food and cocktails (and not just consuming them), I shifted the focus of my photography business in late 2017 to combine my mutual love of travel and food with my desire to connect with and serve others. The rest is history!

When I’m not taking photos, you can find me checking out new restaurants (mostly tacos and ice cream) and exploring the sunshine state for my travel blog, practicing yoga, hanging out with my boyfriend and our dog,  losing myself in a great book, or baking. I have a wide variety of interests and love having the space to enjoy them all.
