Who is The Phoblographer?

Founded in 2009, the Phoblographer is a story of a few driven individuals working to change the way we think about cameras and photography. It started with taking the cameras and lenses out of the lab and into the field. We’re all passionate photographers. And we love to shoot our daily lives with the photo gear we purchase. So it just makes sense for us to incorporate it into our lives. That’s what our staff does.

The website has bridged the gap between the art world and the tech world for over a decade. We do this holistically in all we do as much as possible. It starts with our reviews. By applying it in our gear tests, we work to remind photographers that there’s still a passionate, creative person behind the camera. So you have to work to get the shot. This is further translated through in our various interviews and series’ like Creating the Photograph. What’s more, we’ve worked with partners over the years to uplift the voices of women, POCs, disabled photographers, and others. Our Editor in Chief and Founder, Chris Gampat, is low-vision And through Phoblographer, we’ve worked to motivate and inspire passionate photographers everywhere. Nothing should hold you back from getting the shot!

Our founder has been involved in every aspect of the company’s growth and development over the years. He cares, and it shows holistically through the content. Part of the site’s strength is our incredibly strong Search Engine Optimization that follows the idea of leading with authenticity first. We’ve applied strict ethics to our stories and earn the trust of Google and our readers. Everything from our word choices, stories we tackle, and our image selection is meticulously chosen.

In recent years, the Phoblographer’s initiatives have also included an emphasis on human photography and differentiating the work made by humans and Generative AI. We’ve also explored the ethics of artificial intelligence in the current photography world.

In January 2023, the Phoblographer was granted a Minority Owned Business Certification.

In April 2024, the Phoblographer joined the Content Authenticity Initiative.

In 2024, the Phoblographer launched a store where we sell presets.

Stacie Errera, Vice President Marketing & Communications, Tamron USA

“As a PR rep I’ve worked with Phoblographer several times over the past couple of years. Chris and the team are always a pleasure to work with – they are well-informed, knowledgeable, and enthusiastic. They are always imaginative and diligent in their approach to think of an angle which would interest their readers and make for a more engaging story rather than just replicating a press release.”

Eleanor Macnair, Freelance Publications for the Photo Industry

“It has been a pleasure to be involved with articles on the Phoblographer and I look forward to seeing what new pieces they publish every day.”

Tony Gale, American Photographic Artists President, Photographer

“The Phoblographer is a dichotomy that works well for advertising. It pairs a forward-thinking platform and understanding of modern distribution channels with a more old-fashioned business interaction approach. The upshot as a client reaches on all channels the audience is found, and a team that is flexible and personal.”

Kishore Sawh, Pixel Shift

“The Phoblographer is a collaborative partner, rather than just an advertising channel. I have worked with The Phoblographer in several capacities over the past several years. I’ve had the pleasure to partner with The Phoblographer on events, press coverage, sponsored content, and advertising. Chris and the team offer creative opportunities that other sites do not and unique channels to reach audiences. They have exceeded expectations across all projects and are truly a joy to work with.”
