There are three Kelly Sterlings blended into one remarkable package.
Chef Kelly Sterling works closely with Food Stylist Kelly Sterling to create amazing subjects to be captured by the camera of Food Photographer Kelly Sterling. The images you’ll explore bear witness to it all.

It is not by happenstance that Kelly Sterling would be the preeminent chef of green, clean cuisine. It is a style that she honed and crafted in California, the organic culinary capitol of the world. At the age of 11, it was clear to her father, an accomplished pastry chef, and her mother, a successful restaurateur, that Kelly would eventually carry the family talents forward on a larger stage.
After graduating from the California Culinary Academy, her skills were quickly recognized and desired by the likes of Nobu Matsuhisa, as in Nobu, Daniel Boulud of Cafe Boulud, Mark Miller of Red Sage and Mary Sue Milliken and Susan Feniger of Ciudad and Border Grill. While her classical training was in multicultural cuisine and pastry, her passion was in Pan Asian/West Coast innovation, with the emphasis on innovation. Kelly recognized early on that food was consumed with the eyes and tasted with the soul. It was this understanding that drove Kelly to become the complete cuisinaire, learning knife skills, artistic presentation and working only with the purest, cleanest, chemical-free ingredients.
As her fare gained notoriety so did the demand for her talents for private affairs and clients such as for Gloria Estefan, Miami Heat's Alonzo Mourning, as well as the Honig and Beringer Wineries.

Now Kelly has combined her culinary talent with her extraordinary skills as a Food Photographer and Stylist to offer a complete package for use in editorial and advertising.

Kelly has a simple philosophy from both the food and photography side of culinary. Keep it simple, natural and beautiful.
