I'm working on a project and we need some quality photography for a number of placements that doesn't look like the generic things you find on the popular stock photography sites.

Perhaps I'm just looking in the wrong places, but everything I've seen on getty, istockphoto and fstop comes off as really generic feeling. These folks look like actors posing on set.

I've also tried flickr but found the results too numerous & difficult to filter.

Can anyone point me in the right direction for stock photos of this age group or to any photographers who have great work in this area?

many thanks.

Add together a 40 and a 50 and you'd get JBP.
