History
The business was founded by Mendel Mendlowits in 1974 with the goal to help out amateurs, hobbyists, and professionals in the photography community. With the goal of creating a business that was more than just a camera store, Adorama was set up to be an all-around resource for professional photographers in the news, modeling, and print industries. Adorama also went on to establish its own photo lab, offer equipment rental, and run workshops through the Adorama Learning Center. By 2005, Adorama opened a warehouse in New Jersey.
