We propose a scheme to transfer the spatial intensity as well as phase information encoded initially in the spatial profile of a weak probe field onto a newly generated Stokes field in a nonlinear process of four-wave mixing (FWM). The FWM process is explored in a gaseous medium consisting of atoms modeled as a three-level system in the $\mathrm{\ensuremath{\Lambda}}$ configuration. We found that different orders of Hermite-Gaussian and Laguerre-Gaussian modes carried by a probe beam are effectively transferred to a Stokes beam. Interestingly, the transferred intensity of the Stokes beam is a clone of the probe beam, whereas the phase profile is conjugate to the probe. The phase distribution of the transmitted modes at the exit of the medium is explored by superimposing them on a copropagating plane wave. Moreover, the parametric amplification due to the nonlinear process of FWM prevents any information loss due to linear absorption and permits us to work at high optical depths. We found a structural similarity between transferred images of about $99%$, which provides clear evidence for the successful transfer of information in the FWM process.
