Getty Images x GLAAD: Improving LGBTQ+ Representation
I can still remember the first time I saw that Ikea ad—the one where a couple shop for the perfect dining room table for their home. It’s something so every day, so traditional and yet it was a first in a major way. The year was 1994, and this was the first commercial to feature an openly gay couple.
Self-Described Hoarder and Still Life Photographer Uses Color to Organize Her Collection of Treasures
Brooklyn-based photographer Sara Cwynar’s ‘Color Studies’ series is a contemporary take on traditional still life – composed in a playful, yet meticulous way. Cwynar was partially inspired by her love of collecting, but also by her desire to investigate how the meaning of objects and imagery changes over time. We recently spoke to Cwynar about this series.

A Powerful Vision Brought to Life: The Making of 'Today, I'm Brave'
It wasn't a vision of colliding thoughts or scrambled consciousness. It was crystal clear and real. Unlike anything I had ever experienced. It was a sudden visual of a group of orphans in Africa that appeared and an innate awareness that I was supposed to adopt them.

But even then, depictions of the LGBTQ+ community remained a significant topic of conversation worldwide—one which we've seen reflected in our search data at Getty Images.
Repicturing LGBTQ+ Families
As someone who has only ever marched at Pride in London as part of an LGBTQ+ adopters’ group, my family and our shared identity are a significant part of how I see myself and my place in society. Marching in Pride, surrounded by families that closely resemble mine has been a powerful and poignant experience.
Libations to the Advertising Gods: Raising a Glass to What We've Lost, and What We've Learned
In ancient times, the libation was a ritualistic pouring of a liquid as an offering to a deity. It represented sacrifice; we give this up to you in the hopes that we'll get something back. Something was lost, but something was also gained. We have lost quite a lot through the first half of 2020. The coronavirus pandemic's spread across the world has radically altered nearly every aspect of our lives. We have lost loved ones, jobs, businesses. We've lost a sense of security.
