EPIC’s Evidence Photographer Certification will set the industry guidelines and standards—needed in this ever-changing industry—and will provide this information through optional instruction. This new certification is not just a piece of paper; it will become a part of your reputation, increasing others’ trust in your abilities.

This certification is unique for evidence photographers. Every test answer is fully referenced to at least one readily available textbook regarding forensic or general photography.

The Evidence Photographer Certification encompasses the essential qualities needed in a professional evidence photographer, especially those involved with crime scenes. It is also backed by the Alliance of Visual Artists (AVA) who has successfully educated photographers for over 128 years through the Professional Photographers of America (PPA).

“I believe it will be inevitable that all evidence photographers be certified. The Evidence Photographer Certification is striving to set the standard in this industry.”

Evidence Photographer Certification Committee Member
