The photographers are a dedicated team taking on every assignment from sports to features to fashion to news, which the Post-Dispatch covers aggressively. Often a Post-Dispatch photographer is the paper&#8217;s first reporter on a news scene, providing photos, video, and information immediately for the web, and later for print. It&#8217;s not unusual for a photographer to share bylines with reporters.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For the first time in 5 years, the St. Louis Post-Dispatch\u00a0has an opening for a staff photographer.
