TONL: because stock photos suck
Here’s a great resource I love to share with others (I have no incentive for doing so, I just think they are awesome.)
TONL is in the business of “premier diverse stock photos” which is a much-needed offering in today’s continually white-washed culture. When searching for photos, I am often continually disappointed at how homogenized the offerings are. To me, it matters to use my platform to try to equal the playing field, and one simple but powerful way is to use images that showcase as diverse of a variety of people as possible. As TONL puts it:
If you are someone who uses stock photos, consider using TONL as a resource! In addition to having lofty goals, they have fantastic photos. I even like their newsletter, which tells very compelling stories about the people they feature.
