Unnecessarily in Their Underwear

When cute and cuddly just aren't cutting it, it's time to rely on sex appeal.So, what kind of stock images can you use without getting an "R" rating?

One safe, yet effective, plan is to go with the "unnecessarily in their underwear" images. This is where the model is doing something everyday, like reading or cooking, but is inexplicably doing it in their skimpies.

Stock photography sites often have a wide selection of choices to offer for this type of image. Images like these portray a kind of cool sexiness. It is almost a passive sexiness, which is often easier for designers to use.

So, while it's more aggressive counterpart might intimidate, an image like this could be more inviting to your audience. It conjures up different ideas like freedom, confidence and health, while still maintaining sex appeal.
