Bachrach Studios

Bachrach Studios is an American photographic studio, believed to be one of the oldest continuously operating photography studios in the world. The studio is known for its formal portraits, which draw upon classical painting techniques. With a focus on portraits of distinguished invidivuals, the studio has made formal portraits of almost nearly every American president since Andrew Johnson.

David Bachrach, Jr. founded the studio in 1868. His descendants—Louis Fabian Bachrach, Sr., Louis Fabian Bachrach, Jr., and Louis Fabian Bachrach III—managed the studio and acted as chief photographers. In 2021, the firm was acquired by two employees, who also manage the firm's photographic catalog in Loudoun County, Virginia.
