Breaking Through The Glass Ceiling

In this image of a woman successfully breaking through the glass ceiling the woman wears a happy expression with her clenched fists leading the way. She is dressed in business attire and standing or jumping at the top of an escalator. This image can be cropped as a vertical square, or horizontal. There is ample copy space. This image is dramatic with a quick and clear message. It is an easy read at thumbnail sizes making it great for use on the Internet. We have a signed model release.

Successful Business Woman And Equality

That the businesswoman in this image is successful is immediately evident. Her success is seen in her breaking the glass barrier, which only follows that she has been successful in her business venture as well. The image is dynamic and filled with action as pieces of the destroyed barrier are flying apart. This is easily the best image available for drawing attention to the "glass ceiling" that refers to the artificial barriers set up to prevent women from achieving success equal to their male counterparts. 

Concept Photos Depicting Gender Equality And Social Progress

To create this photo showing gender equality and social progress I photographed a woman model as she jumped up towards my camera. I was standing atop a ladder and shooting down on the model. Next I photographed a piece of shattered glass. I selected the various pieces of glass using a clipping path in Photoshop, and then created the composite photo by adding in an image of an escalator shot in a public space at an airport. This is an image about determination, perseverance, mental toughness and success. This is a picture of hope, progress and social equality. This is a photo showing the way forward, change and the future. Finally, this is a picture of a strong woman.

Glass Ceiling Photos On The Internet

Before embarking on the creation of this glass ceiling image I searched the Internet to see what was already available. I was both surprised and pleased to see a definite lack of such imagery. It means on only that there is a good chance that I can license this image many times over, but it also means I am helping to truly fulfill a need for my potential clients...both a nice feeling and a requirement for business success!
