In 1909 Heinrich Hoffmann founded a photographic studio on Schellingstraße in Munich and started to work as a press photographer. In 1913, he founded the image agency Photobericht Hoffmann. When Hitler became the dictator of Germany, Hoffmann was the only person authorized to take official photographs of him. He adopted the title Reichsbildberichterstatter (Reich Picture Reporter) and his company "Heinrich Hoffmann, Verlag Nationalsozialischer Bilder" (Publisher of National Socialist Pictures) became the largest private company of its kind.

He had a studio at Theresienstrasse, in Munich, where most of the photos here categorized were taken.
