 What is Gran Angular?

Great Angular is a network of freelance photographers and journalists specialized in features for the written and audio-visual press. The agency is based on the rapidity and versatility that offer the new technologies, mainly Internet, to make information travel all around the world in a record time.

Gran Angular bets on the features, like the best way to present different realities with a certain depth. The agency is composed of an international equipment of journalists and photographers distributed by several countries. In addition to the habitual staff, Gran Angular also accepts collaborations.
In Gran Angular we do not follow the commercial logic of the leading news and photo agencies, nor are put under the standardization of contents derived from that commercial logic. We offer a different glance on issues of the present time in multiple fields.

In Gran Angular we use Internet to shorten distances and to offer journalistic products in a different way that they can be found in the leading agencies of the sector.

 Who we are?

Great Angular was born at the end of the 2000 of the union of two friends: the Spanish Luis Carballo and French Jean Pierre Porcher. Since then the group of photographers has not stopped to grow. The initial team has been joined by dozens of photographers, editors, TV producers, correspondents and radio speakers - spread all over the world. Gran Angular has its headquarters in Barcelona, Spain.
