Professional Photographers of America (PPA) is a non-profit organization founded back in 1868. Our mission is to create a vibrant community of successful professional photographers by offering education, resources, and upholding industry standards of excellence. As trends, technology, and the consumer landscape changes, PPA remains committed to serving 35,0000+ members across 70+ countries. At PPA, our goal is to empower our members to build sustainable, profitable businesses while elevating their photography skills.

We do this by offering competition, certification, and degrees as the pathway for photographers to refine their craft and stand out to clients. Our members stay ahead of the curve with benefits like Professional Photographer magazine, a vast online educational library, curriculums, a variety of year-round workshops, and our annual conference, Imaging USA. To safeguard our members’ businesses, we offer equipment insurance, malpractice coverage, and the indemnification trust, assisting hundreds every year. PPA champions copyright protection of intellectual property and is a strong advocate for photographer rights on Capitol Hill.

We are guided by our Board of Directors and our work is made possible by an incredible network of volunteers, committee members, and our members. Explore the resources, tools, and supportive community PPA provides to help photographers flourish. Join at PPA.com. 💻
