Caption and Keywording Guidelines
Who
Are there people in the image or is this an object or scenic?
If there are people, is the subject male or female, and do your caption or keywords convey this?
Is the person playing a role? (father/mother, doctor, leader, etc)
Have you mentioned the ages of subjects (specific ages and age-ranges as well as “labels” like generation X, youth, senior).
Is it appropriate to mention the subjects race or ethnicity (caucasian, black, hispanic)?
Who is the subject of this image? Is it a person? Actual names are good to include for news or documentary coverage. However names are usually not necessary for stock photography purposes, unless you are talking about celebrities, figureheads and historically noteworthy persons. If it's Donald Trump: yes, include the name. For Donald, your next-door neighbor who was your model in a lifestyle shot, no, do not add the name.
