We investigate the rapidity and transverse momentum distributions of the prompt photon production at the LHC energies considering the color dipole approach. We compare the predictions from distinct models for the dipole cross section, where parton saturation models at high energies are expected to be important at the forward rapidities in [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] collisions at the LHC.
