He was the father of chief physician Peter Herman Vogt and engineer Jens Theodor Paludan Vogt, father-in-law of Johanne Vogt and grandfather of poet Nils Collett Vogt.

He was elected to the Norwegian Parliament in 1839, representing the constituency of Søndre Bergenhus Amt, where he worked as a vicar. He only served one term.
