Become a Vendor MemberSusan Crutchfield

What’s in it for me?

Whether you are in the Antique or Amusement Photography Business — or if you are interested in the industry — AAPI offers a unique opportunity for Learning, Networking and Professional Advancement. AAPI has two categories for membership, Studio Membership and Vendor Membership.

AAPI is a professional association for photographers who specialize in antique / “old time” photography and vendor businesses who sell to those studios. It is a one-of-a-kind organization with members throughout the United States, Canada, Europe and several other countries. Through a representative voting process, AAPI’s members determine the direction of the association and choose its volunteer leadership from its membership.
