PHOTOGRAPHY

Photography has always been in LaPresse’s DNA, and it is at the very core of its development.

Ever since the Second World War’s aftermath up to current times, the countless photo reports it has produced have thrilled entire generations, impressing into our collective memory these news items and making them history.

Years of photojournalistic documentation and the acquisition of important archives, including Olycom, Publifoto since 1938, Olympia Fotocronache, Franca Speranza, Bungaro, Delmati, Cioni/Spinelli, Triedici, Bernardi, Papi today form an archive of over 85 million images from 1906 onwards, implemented in real time with current events photos produced every day.

The quality of the images, the capillarity of the coverage, the timeliness of the production, the documentation of all categories of news, from politics to news, from entertainment to sports, have contributed to positioning LaPresse as the agency of choice for publishers and broadcasters, so much so that more than 93% of the Italian publishing market purchases its content.

With over 500 photographers throughout the country, including employees, continuous collaborators and exclusive freelancers, every day LaPresse produces over 2,000 photos in real time, covering everything that happens in Italy, expressing excellence in sport, news, and as the only structure in Italy to do so, in gossip.

LaPresse photos are distributed internationally by Associated Press and published worldwide.
At the same time, thanks to its partnership agreements with AP and other important foreign agencies, the agency provides around 3,000 images from all over the world, daily and in real time.
