Why would we doubt the existence of the photon? We see! We attempt to understand our ability to see and this drove us to quanta of light. The photoelectric effect suggest quanta rather than some other arrangement.
The photon is the thing that interacts with the electron and other charged particles. In other words to say that something is charged is to say it interacts with photons.
