Portuguese term or phrase: imagens montadas
Images used in publicity.

From the context it looks like it might be"stock images" but I would like to know if anyone specilizing in marketing terms in Brazilian Portuguese can tell me best equivalent term in English.

Many thanks in advance.

"Stock images" seria banco de imagens, ou um acervo de imagens e fotos prontas, conforme estes dois artigos do Wikipedia:

http://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Banco_de_imagens
Bancos de imagens são serviços onde é possível obter imagens ou fotografias prontas para uso em trabalhos da área de design, publicidade e propaganda. O conceito foi criado nos anos 20, e até hoje é muito usado por revistas, jornais, e por designers que precisam de imagens; porém é criticado por alguns profissionais, que consideram as imagens prontas "sem criatividade" e "sem personalidade".

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stock_photography
Stock photography is the supply of photographs licensed for specific uses. It is used to fulfill the needs of creative assignments instead of hiring a photographer. Today, stock images can be presented in searchable online databases. They can be purchased and delivered online. Often, they are produced in studios using a wide variety of models posing as professionals, stereotypes, expressing stereotypical emotions and gesticulations or involving pets.

Agora, IMAGENS MONTADAS tem a ver com a técnica, a montagem das fotos e hoje em dia é tudo Photoshop :)
