Welcome!
We’re the Chicago Center for Photojournalism (CC4PJ), located in the vibrant Uptown neighborhood of Chicago. Our vision is to elevate the importance of visual journalism, foster community engagement, and empower underrepresented voices to shape the narratives that shape our society. By embracing diversity, we aim to create a stronger, more inclusive field of photojournalism that accurately reflects the rich tapestry of human experiences.

We offer world class photojournalism, old school photo classes and fine art printing services.

August 8 - September 20

Super excited to share that we’ll begin hanging prints for the No Kings: This is Chicago! Our reception will be held on Friday, August 8th from 7–10pm 

As part of this project, we are building an ongoing print archive of Chicago’s resistance in the year 2025—created by Chicago photographers. These images will be printed at 8.5 x 11 and preserved as a record of our time.

“The elements of a subject that speak to us are often scattered and can't be captured in one photo; we don't have the right to force them together, and to stage them would be cheating... which brings us to the need for photojournalism.”

— Henri Cartier-Bresson
