Keep in mind the stereotypes that prevail in our society, whether valid or not.   For example, many years ago, as I was building my stock photo files I planned a mother/baby shoot. I hired a great looking young woman to be the mother.  She was possibly of Italian or middle eastern descent and had a wonderful, naturally light, tan look.  I also hired a baby to be her child, thinking this was going to be a perfect match.  Not paying enough attention, we spent hours shooting: holding and feeding the baby, changing diapers, reading to the baby, rocking chair, and so on.  When I began editing the images I noticed that the baby didn’t really look like hers.  Her facial features weren’t evident in the babies, subtle differences in skin tones weren’t close enough and this was later validated by my stock agent’s comments.The content you are trying to access is only available to members.
