Stock photos are often the butt of jokes for being unrealistic, generic, overused and, now, perpetuating stereotypes. A new campaign from Getty Images, Dove Beauty and GirlGaze is working to change that.

Together, they've launched #ShowUs, the largest stock photo collection created by women. Their goal? To subvert beauty stereotypes.

On Second Thought host Virginia Prescott speaks with Peyton Fulford and Anna Sophia Mackey.

The 5,000 images in the #ShowUs collection were created by more than 100 female-identifying and non-binary photographers. Albany native and Atlanta-based photographer Peyton Fulford is one of them. She and #ShowUs model Anna Sophia Mackey joined On Second Thought in studio for a behind the scenes look at what went into creating these images.
