Explanation:
Lead en ocasiones quiere decir abrirse paso. Creo que es este el sentido de "lead picture".

Lead and last picture
The most important picture of any picture story is the one that opens the story - the lead picture. This picture has a double function. First, it must attract the reader's attention and make that person want to know more about the subject. For that reason it should be the largest in your picture story. Second, it must show the subject and theme of the story in a graphically interesting form.

Almost as important as the lead picture is the last picture. The closing picture should show the reader the significance of the subject to the storyline or theme.

una importante foto que sería la principal para la nota sobre Ronald Reagan


Explanation:
Se refiere a la foto principal para la nota que se hará de Ronald Reagan

...INTENTANDO TOMARLE A RONALD REAGAN UNA IMPORTANTE FOTO QUE IBA A SER LA PRINCIPAL EN LA NOTA QUE SE HARÍA SOBRE ÉL. (Tendríamos que conocer el resto del contexto, pero sería más o menos así. El inglés es un idioma que lo comprime y sintetiza todo, entonces en español tendrías que explicarlo un poco.)
Espero que te sirva, saludos
