In 1977, the first Hall of Fame and Museum opened in Santa Barbara, California, and a few years later, in 1983 moved to Oklahoma City. IPHF is the first organization worldwide that recognizes significant contributors to the artistic craft and science of photography.

In addition to an extensive collection of photographs and cameras, IPHF offers lectures and other educational opportunities; surrounding all aspects of photography, past, and present, for people of all ages.

The IPHF inductees artists and individuals that have changed the art industry with their photography or inventions. IPHF has more than 70 inductees and archives more than 30,000 images. Each year a nominating committee selects inductees based on their contributions to the art or science of photography and their impact on the history of photography.
