With营销人员的46%reporting that photography is critical to their current marketing and storytelling strategies, it should come as no surprise that quality photos are in high demand.

Trouble is, most commercially available photos on the internet were taken to visualize broad overall concepts rather than concrete messages. That means they can be used in all sorts of campaigns ... but also end up looking generic.

Think of all the photos of smiling receptionists and perfectly suited business leaders you've come across. These images may compete for attention, but often fail to register, simply because your customers can’t identify with them. 下载您在此处搜索的免费库存照片,无需归因。

作为营销人员,您可以使用与观众更加紧密相关的图像来减少噪音。这就是我们在这里所说的“真实摄影”EyeEm: Unique captures, delightful moments, and surprising perspectives. Images that are more concrete will resonate with audiences much more powerfully since they show real life rather than staged situations.

To visualize what we mean, we put together a handful of generic images alongside a ‘real’ counterpart sourced from our community of photographers. The proof is in the pictures, but we'll let you see for yourself ...

8 Examples of Authentic Imagery For Your Campaigns

1)业务

当谈到与业务相关的照片时,不乏陈词滥调。与其确定一个过于干净,通用的图像,例如下面拿着“开放”标志的女人的图像,而是更深入地挖掘更真实的东西 - 这说明了一个故事。

您会注意到,我们的建议是通过突出两个人共同从事一个项目的人,在更个人的业务方面联系。您可以在女人的脸上看到情感,因为她用双手在看似真实的交流中向同事解释了一些东西。

2) Technology

众所周知,技术很难可视化,因为“连接”之类的概念非常抽象。老式的股票摄影通常会使技术旁边的人们达到这种联系,但是结果笨拙且构造。或更糟糕的是,它们添加了一个奇怪的未来派数字覆盖层,如下图。

我们的建议灵感来自当代社交媒体文化 - 这是可以识别的。它还具有柔和的焦点,自然照明,并显示了一个真正与技术互动的人。

3) Travel

老实说:当您上次去度假时,希望带着装满沙子的手提箱回家吗?在许多情况下,旅行照片只是朴素的老套,它们缺乏探索新地方带来的兴奋和奇妙感。

如今,如下所示,如下所示,这些天来,可以通过显示旅行的实际经验来更有效地吸引客户的注意力。镜头从飞机上的窗户上显示了景色。它捕捉了令人兴奋的开始旅行的感觉 - 许多人很容易与之联系。

4) Happiness

根据一项研究, pictures with smiling faces can positively impact conversions. Trouble is, while picturing happiness with a simple smile might have worked in the past, it has long become a tired cliché.

虽然一群穿着鲜艳的衬衫微笑的人的形象感到被迫,但我们的建议更加自然,因为它散发出积极的情感,同时包括有趣的运动元素。图像看起来像是一个快照,在真正的乐趣和团结时刻拍摄。

5)办公室

通过一个可能(或可能不使用)使用的工具代表办公室,看起来令人难以置信的上演。最好显示上下文。

在这种情况下,我们建议的图像显示了自由职业者的创造空间,并带有令人愉悦的调色板,以强调工作场所的宁静和重点。

6) Phone

大多数电话的图像都表明人们尴尬地处理了它们,以现实生活中任何人都不会的方式展示其设备。图表A:下面的图像年轻女孩holding up her电话with a blank screen.

现在,请注意我们的建议是如何设定的突出手机而不会感到强迫或俗气。图像中的人以一种非常自然的方式使用手机显示出来,并且很容易识别 - 毕竟,谁不喜欢为宠物拍照?

7) Productivity

Being productive isn’t about doing many things at once, as the photo on the left suggests -- but about focus and a clear sense of what matters. (看看这个免费的guidefor tips on how to be more productive.)

While the stock photo below is just plain creepy, our suggestion shows a woman at work, with her focus being underlined by the headphone she wears. It also uses much softer, natural light to remind the viewer how common this activity is.

8)领导

Leadership is all about building trust and establishing credibility。不幸的是,以领导力为灵感的照片常常错过标记。

The photo below portrays an artificial and thereby very conventional idea of what leadership looks like. To combat that, we choose an image that while more loosely related to the idea, manages to demonstrate the emotive aspect of leading有人
