Best guess for the first U.S. President ever to be photographed while in office was James Knox Polk, who was President from March 4, 1845 to March 4, 1849. John Quincy Adams was the first president to photographed, but his photo was taken after he was President and while he was serving in Congress
There is what appears to be an early photo of William Henry Harrison but it may have been taken before he was elected. There is also a photo of John Tyler but it was most likely taken after he left office. It seems fairly certain that Polk was photographed while he was president.
