Contact Press members include legendary photojournalists David Burnett, Annie Leibovitz and Sebastião Salgado, among others.  For PhotoShelter, the deal with such a respected photographer organization represents a significant accomplishment. "We're thrilled that Contact has been added to our growing list of clients," said Allen Murabayashi, CEO of BitShelter, LLC, the creators of PhotoShelter. "Contact's archive is a monumental collection of images spanning 30 years of incredible history and representing a range of talent that reads like a veritable Who's Who of documentary photography."

For their part, Contact Press appreciate that PhotoShelter's technology allows them to retain their brand identity while providing a practical tool for storing and managing their archive on-line and making it available to Contact's clients.  "The innovative technology that PhotoShelter has developed is enabling us to implement advanced features while retaining the look and feel of Contact's website," said Jeffrey D. Smith, Executive Director of Contact Press Images. "Our brand is important to us, and PhotoShelter's system is not only robust, but flexible enough for us to adapt it to our corporate identity."
