About IFPA - International Fire Photographers Association

This group is for current, and especially, prospective members of the IFPA. If you've been curious as to who the IFPA is, and what they do, come on in and have a look around. Please be sure to visit the official web site for more in-depth details on the group!

The International Fire Photographers Association was organized in 1964 at the Chicago Fire Academy. This association of professional fire department photographers conducted its first training conference in 1965 with 150 delegate members from the United States and Canada. Conference attendees formed an organization for the primary purpose of advancing the effectiveness of fire photography. In 1965, the International Fire Photographers Association was officially formed.

IFPA MISSION STATEMENT

The International Fire Photographers Association will promote professionalism in all aspects of fire photography, specifically in the fields of fire, educational, and investigative photography and the recognition of all fire photography organizations as an important tool in the fire service and law enforcement.
