About us


The European Pressphoto Agency B.V. (EPA) was founded in 1984 by seven European news agencies motivated by what they saw as a lack of alternatives to the British/American-centric picture services offered at the time.

In early 2003 EPA successfully made its service available to the worldwide market, beginning its global operations. In 2014 EPA also launched a global video service. Along with the coverage from its shareholder countries, EPA has expanded its service to include its own coverage of North America, the Middle East, Africa, and Asia. It also relies on suppliers to cover Latin America (via Agencia EFE), the Nordic countries and Oceania.

With headquarters in Frankfurt am Main, EPA has a permanent network of over 130 visual journalists worldwide and an extensive list of regular stringers.

The photo and video production is supported by photo and video editors in Tokyo, Bangkok, Frankfurt, Madrid, Cairo, Washington and Los Angeles, while EPA’s current Sales and Business Development team is spread across multiple locations in Frankfurt, Hamburg, Cologne, London, Paris, Belgrade and Cairo.

We are looking forward to hearing from you.
