Scott Strazzante, Photojournalist
Made possible by the generosity of Paul's Photo, Torrance, CA
Join us in person for an exciting session with Scott Strazzante as part of Visual Stories National Press Photographers Association-Los Angeles Chapter. A native Chicagoan, Scott Strazzante’s journey into photography started at a young age when he would borrow his father’s camera to shoot White Sox baseball games. His early newspaper stints included The Daily Southtown and the Joliet Herald-News in suburban Chicago. In Joliet, Strazzante won the Newspaper Photographer of the Year award by the Missouri School of Journalism and the NPPA in the 58th Pictures of the Year contest. In 2001, he joined the staff at the Chicago Tribune and in 2007, as part of the newspaper’s team, he shared a Pulitzer Prize for Investigative Reporting for a series about faulty government regulation of dangerously defective toys, cribs and car seats.
Strazzante recently left the San Francisco Chronicle after an 11-year stint in the Bay Area capped off by being named NPPA Best of Photojournalism’s Sports Photojournalist of the Year for his work in 2025.
In early 2026, Strazzante embarked on a freelance career after relocating to Long Beach.Dive into the world of captivating visuals and storytelling, and get inspired by Scott's unique approach to photography and narrative.
