I am not sure to what extent people who read presentation design blogs also have a large number of fashion design feeds in their RSS reader. I follow one: The Sartorialist, the blog of Scott Schuman who wanders around city streets with a camera, taking pictures of regular people wearing interesting creations.
Browsing through his site will show you how poor staged stock images are, and how much more emotionally powerful images of real people can be in your presentation.
To the left is a small screen shot of the web site. Photography on The Sartorialist is under copyright, so you can use the site only for inspiration. Use Flickr to search for relevant images with a creative commons license.
Update: below a mini documentary that came out just today.

Your point is well taken.
There is also a huge difference between snapshots and photographs, isn't there!
