Almost overnight, art director of advertising Matthew Vescovo has become one of my favorite people on the planet. I don’t love him quite as much as Elon Musk or Daniel Craig, but he’s right up there.
You see, he’s taken stock images and made them amazing. That may not sound impressive, but for someone that works with pictures like these each and every day, well… let’s just say I’m pretty tired of looking at them. No, I take that back… I was tired of looking at them. These new versions are much, much better.
Here’s how this works: there’s the original version followed by an enhanced, far more realistic version. Seriously, who enjoys children’s birthday parties?
And don’t even get me started on old people. In any case, I’m going to stop talking now and let you enjoy the images without my commentary. We’ll meet up again a little later and discuss everything.
It’s interesting that these stock photography companies make the images so… bland. How much work would it really be to inject a little bit of personality into each of the pictures?
In any case, I hope you enjoyed these enhanced stock images as much as I did. I’m planning to hold a contest in the coming weeks where people just like you can submit your own “stock photobombs” to the site to win something great.
