Elizabeth “Beth” Leitzke, owner of Elizabeth Anne Photography, specializes in branding, product and food photography for creative entrepreneurs and produce-based businesses. Growing up in Jacksonville surrounded by a family that believed deeply in hard work and creativity, her artistic outlets were numerous – art, photography, handwriting. Photography eventually became the path to express her creativity.

In recent years, working as a photographer for a marketing firm, Leitzke studied and understood the world of small businesses. She decided to take what businesses do and show it to the world through artistic branding photography.

“I’m the owner and lead photographer, where I help businesses tell visual stories that feel like a vibe but function like a strategy,” Leitzke said. “My work blends artistic perspective with commercial purpose – images that stop the scroll, spark connection and elevate brands with visuals that feel real, intentional and uniquely them.”

Leitzke’s favorite part of her work comes when clients see themselves or their creations in a new light.

“Is that really mine?” and “I’ve never seen myself like this before” are the reactions that make everything click, she said.

In the coming year, Leitzke’s focus is on expanding deeper into the food and hospitality industry, launching subscription-based visual content packages and becoming a creative partner for restaurants, chefs and product brands across Northeast Florida.

“I joined the Women’s Food Alliance because community matters and I believe that creativity and business grow faster when we collaborate, support each other and open doors instead of guarding them,” she said. “The energy, passion and purpose with this group of women is exactly the kind of environment I want to contribute to and grow with.”
