# Top 50 Photography companies in the United States

Tamtam tracks 57 Photography companies headquartered in the United States. This list ranks the 50 largest by number of employees on LinkedIn, led by Getty Images, Lifetouch and Lifetouch National School Studios. Their median headcount is 344. Half of them were founded in 1993 or later. The most common headquarters are New York (11), Eden Prairie (5) and Atlanta (2).

These US photography companies include both large, established firms and more recent ventures. Many specialize in event photography, such as school portraits, graduations, and newborn sessions. Lifetouch, for example, focuses on capturing memories for schools and families, while Bella Baby Photography specializes in newborn photography in hospitals.

A notable pattern is the concentration of companies in specific photography niches. Getty Images is a global provider of visual content. Professional Photographers of America supports the industry with resources and advocacy. Magnum Photos is a collective of independent photographers documenting world events.

## How this list is built

Every company on this list has a Tamtam company profile. The industry is the one the company gives on LinkedIn; categories such as SaaS or fintech are classified by Tamtam's AI from the company's website and LinkedIn page; and the headquarters city must match the company's own address. Companies are ranked by the number of employees on LinkedIn, and the list is refreshed every night. Classifications can be wrong, so treat the list as a starting point rather than an official ranking. Last updated Nov 11, 2026.
