Pittsburgh Photography

In fact, just because you're a Pittsburgh photographer doesn't mean your affiliate links are welcome. After all, the we want to make sure that any content we share is actually helpful and reader first.

A good test is to ask yourself: is this worth sharing without the link? If the answer is no or not really then we're likely going to reject it. Therefore, try to make sure your article focuses on being helpful for readers (as subjective as that might be) before asking us to publish it with an affiliate link.

Before you submit your article idea search the website to make sure it's not duplicate information. Then, use the button below or visit the contact page. Make sure to include a summary of what you want to write about. After that we'll review your request and write back if we think it's a good fit. Too, we may follow up with questions.

However, if you don't hear back it means we're not going to publish it. Ultimately, as a volunteer group, we can't respond to everyone and we thank you for being understanding.

There are other groups in Pittsburgh with the goal of helping to improve the local photography industry. As such, we applaud them and their efforts. That said, some of those groups are not as inclusive as we might like. Additionally, some are controlled by people who don't have everyone's best interest at heart.

This is where Pittsburgh Photography seeks to be different.

As such, we understand that we're not all starting from the same place. In addition, we don't all have the same resources, education, or opportunities. Because we understand that there is strength in diversity along with the fact that diversity intensifies creative growth, we strive to ensure that all photographers are elevated and celebrated in their journeys.

In addition to our other values, we believe that Pittsburgh, with it's historic labor, racial, and identity struggles, calls us to stand up as our forebearers did. Too, that we must call for justice where we see injustice.

To that end, we believe Pittsburgh must be a welcoming place to everyone. Therefore, if your views are unwelcoming of others we will still welcome you but we will not welcome any language or behavior that belittles anyone. In addition any demonstration of superiority or that seems to elevates any group above another is not tolerated.
