Icon Sports Media, a specialty library of more than a million sports-related images based in southern California, has announced that it has launched a new site utilizing Spitfire Photo’s technology platform for online image management and sales. The new site located at IconSportsMedia.com includes over 1 million images covering more than 100 unique sports worldwide. In addition the new platform allows Icon Sports Media’s photographers to utilize a quick upload and syndication utility making new images available to buyers faster than ever before.
“Spitfire Photo is the industry standard when it comes to advanced user access technology and gives us a great opportunity to work collaboratively with not only our clients but also our more than 250 contributing photographers,” said Jamie Calsyn, president of Icon SMI. “It gives us incredible control and reliability over our database and ensures that we can deliver our images at the conclusion of a game in a fast, productive manner—absolutely critical to our business.”
“Spitfire Photo levels the playing field for agencies of all sizes by providing the technology that was formerly only available to big-budget organizations such as Getty or Jupiter Images,” said Steven Rabkin, president of Spitfire Photo. “Icon exemplifies quality and excellence in editorial sports imagery and we are honored to be chosen as their technology partner.”
