An client wanted to boost it’s PR and requested a brochure featuring groups of multicultural people working together, with a special the need for images of women within these photos. The picture was supposed to suggest “commercial success.”
After eliminating every picture featuring Middle-Eastern, Indian, Pacific Islander or African people, the client decided the images of a man and woman working together suggested they were “breaking up” or “discussing an unwanted pregnancy.”
We ended up with an image of a white guy writing on a whiteboard.
