No other brand covers professional photography in print and digital like Photo District News. PDN’s subscribers are working professionals in fields such as commercial, editorial, fine-art and documentary photography. They also include photography assistants and emerging pros who all rely on PDN to report on the latest technologies, provide relevant business, legal and media advice, and cover the needs of today’s clients and the work of photographers from around the world.

PHOTO DISTRICT NEWS

Over the past couple of years I've watched PDN shift and grow into a publication that really hits the mark

for working professionals. When we're struggling as still photographers directing a film crew there is a whole feature filled with interviews about the same thing. When we're questioning our traditional marketing campaign it's in the next issue. Maybe the writers for PDN have a hidden camera in our studio.

Those interviews and conversations! That insight into the experiences of our peers working in this industry that is so highly competitive, and sometimes isolating, is a huge and amazing resource.”

– ADAM VOORHEES, PHOTOGRAPHER

DISTRIBUTION 19,600Total Readership: 39,200

PHOTO+ CREATIVE SERVICES

PRINT ADVERTORIALS: Available as a single story or a longer campaign, our advertorials are written and designed to fit naturally into our existing publications. Our recent campaigns include a four-year series with Profoto in Rangefinder, a two-year series with Adobe Stock in PDN, a four-month series with Sony in PDN and a three-month series with Canon in Rangefinder.

CUSTOM ONLINE CONTENT: We publish weekly Native Advertising posts across PDNonline.com and Rangefinderonline.com, integrated with editorial content and promoted on social media. We also pitch special online projects to clients, such as PhotoShelter Fridays, a 5-week Q&A series published in PDNPulse that showcases exceptional photographers who use PhotoShelter to host their work; and In Motion, an Adobe-sponsored online gallery that highlighted the best new filmmakers, nominated by industry pros.

PUBLICATIONS:• PDNedu, in partnership with Nikon, is our semiannual

publication for photography students and educators, published since 2002.

• From 2007-2014 Emerging Photographer was produced in collaboration with Sony before its re-launch as a standalone, submission-based magazine that features stellar work from rising photographers in the documentary, portrait, fashion, travel and fine-art fields.

• Rangefinder “Behind the Shot” was published in 2014 as a special issue customized for Samsung. The issue featured Rangefinder’s regular columns and design with custom content and commissioned work to introduce readers to Samsung’s NX Smart Cameras.

SUPPLEMENTS:• For a fourth year we bring readers the PDN and Rangefinder

Gift Guide in print and online. With a reach of more than 1 million image-makers, the Gift Guide is the perfect place to promote your new products ahead of the holiday season.

• In 2015, our team partnered with Samsung to create a polybagged supplement to PDN about 4K Filmmaking, following our custom summer contest, the 4K Filmmaking Challenge.

• Each year, our team produces Show Guides for the PhotoPlus Expo and WPPI Conference & Expo, in addition to the Studio & Equipment Guide in the fall.
