Getty Images takes stand against photoshopped bodies in stock photos
Getty Images will no longer accept creative images depicting models whose body shapes have been retouched to make them look thinner or larger.
The stock photography site has amended its Creative Stills Submission Requirements globally to ensure that such retouched creative materials cannot be submitted from October 1 onwards.
The decision was made in tandem with a new law in France requiring clients who use commercial images in the region to disclose whether the body shape of the model has been retouched.
