When searching for an image using Getty Editorial, Getty Creative, AP or Bloomberg, it is best to use certain catalogs for different scenarios because sometimes searching an image catalog will return a completely unrelated image. In these instances, it's best to search a different catalog.

When to use Getty Editorial vs. Getty Creative:  

  • News related (events, concerts, famous people, conferences, etc) = Getty Editorial

  • Stock images that are metaphoric, illustrative, or figurative (enthusiam in the workplace, piggy bank, handshake, etc) = Getty Creative
