PHOTOGRAPHY / STOCK PHOTOGRAPHY<br />

Stock Photography<br />

Libraries<br />

Stock photography libraries are very useful, but there<br />

are some downsides; the use of stock photography is<br />

widespread, images are not exclusive to one user, and<br />

the use of a single image by multiple subscribers can<br />

and does occur.<br />

All images that we choose to represent our brand must<br />

also have a consistent look and feel. When sourcing<br />

images from a stock photography library, avoid images<br />

that do not meet our creative direction values.<br />

CLICHÉ<br />

Do Not Use cliché images with educational and success metaphors.<br />

Do not use:<br />

• Any cliché imagery, including images that use cliché<br />

metaphors for education and success.<br />

• Images with overly complex or busy backgrounds.<br />

• Images with people or individuals who are<br />

unconvincingly posed and styled.<br />

• Photo-montaged images or imagery that have been<br />

treated with distracting filters and effects.<br />

OVERLY POSED<br />

Do Not Use where subjects are overly posed and are not authentic.<br />

PHOTO MONTAGES<br />

Do Not Use photo montages and images treated with distracting filters and effects.<br />
