The Phillips Photographers building at 1505 S. Florida Ave. that Robin Phillips inherited from his father, Dick Phillips, is scheduled to be sold to Patterson Publishing later this week. Patterson publishes The Lakelander magazine.
As Phillips nears 60 years in the photography business, Phillips said he is ready to transition away from weddings to a future focusing on photo restoration. “I can do that at home,” he said.
Curt Patterson, president of Patterson Publishing, said purchasing the Phillips building will help his 10-year-old business grow. This is the company’s first purchase. Until now, Patterson said, the company has rented its offices and used studio space around Lakeland.
