Our Story

Patty Studio began its journey in 2008, with Patty at the helm, focusing on architectural photography. The studio went through a natural evolution when Patty welcomed a growing family. However, the passion for photography never faded. In 2018, Patty Studio was rebranded with a renewed focus, embracing the joy of capturing life's beautiful moments through photography.

We are continuously expanding our expertise, always seeking to learn new techniques and explore innovative ways to tell your visual story.

How We Met

The story of Patty Studio is intertwined with a story of friendship, shared passions, and a love for visual storytelling. Patty and Czarina, the dynamic duo behind the lens, first crossed paths during their second year of Architectural School.

Spending countless hours together on studio projects fueled a deep camaraderie, built on a foundation of shared interests and creative aspirations. Their passion for photography truly blossomed in an Architectural Photography class, where they discovered the magic of 35mm film. The hands-on experience of developing their own pictures in a traditional darkroom solidified their bond and ignited their shared love for the art form.

Years later, with personal and professional paths diverging, Patty and Czarina found themselves drawn back to their first love, photography. Wandering through the vibrant streets of New York City, they rediscovered the joy of capturing fleeting moments and everyday vignettes.

That shared passion, rekindled through wanderlust and creative collaboration, is the very essence of Patty Studio.
