Today access to pictures is very easy but media publishers have to deal with an overabundance of similar photos of questionable quality. And more and more often the rights are unclear. With our international photo production and the coverage of our well known contributors we ensure a very high standard of journalistic quality and a proper management of copyright and related rights issues.
In addition to the agencies ddp images, laif and Stella Pictures, our group also includes the renowned picture agency brands Picture Press, Intertopics and FoodCentrale. There is also close editorial cooperation with our French partner agency Abaca Press. In September 2021, ddp media GmbH became a subsidiary of action press AG.
