In 2025, we’re trying to get to a minimum of 2,000 subscribers as part of our membership program! Capture One is discounted for members! The New Phoblographer membership is now based on our website. Yes, we moved away from the app. It was a bittersweet move — but what we’re offering you now is even better. Don’t worry — if you had a membership, we won’t be leaving you behind. It’s all based on the website. We’re working to sort the discounts out again, but those are coming. And best of all, it’s on the website. Good photography should be experienced on a large screen. So check out the details below.

The Phoblographer Subscription Membership Perks Include:

  • No banner ads in The Phoblographer’s articles when using the mobile or desktop website after confirming the subscription.
  • Discounts on Capture One products: The Phoblographer’s staff uses Capture One software for our product reviews. Manufacturers often recommend it to us.
  • Discounts on Herbs and Kettle Tea: This perk is designed for photographers who want to focus their mind in a world where screens and social media are taking away our brain power. Reclaim your creativity for yourself.
  • More benefits are coming soon!
  • For membership support inquiries and instructions on how you use your benefits should be sent to admins(at)thephoblographer(dot)com

We’ve been working incredibly hard behind the scenes to get all this done. And we’re working with other vendors to try to bring our members even more benefits.
