photo agency

Picture licensing business

A photo agency is a business that collects, licenses, and distributes photographs to publishers, advertisers, and media outlets.

Agencies may represent photographers, manage their archives, and handle rights and payments.

Stock photo agencies sell existing images; news agencies supply current events coverage.
