Those are just stock photos. There are tons of stock photo websites 
out there where you can type in keywords to find the type of photos 
you want. Let's say you need a photo of a man eating a pizza, you can 
just go to one of those stock photo websites, type in "Pizza, man", 
and the sites will give you tons of photos that has a man eating 
pizza. You can choose the one you like, download it, and use it 
anyway you want. In this case for these ads, the artist must have 
typed in "Woman, computer". 

In the design field, this is something very common for designers to 
do when they do drafts for their works. It is also something very 
useful for Design students, as they don't have budget to hire 
photographers to take pictures that is needed for their project.
  
And just in case people, please realized that those are 
just "Parodies" of the ad, they're not real! 
They're made by fan, for Slash fans. And they're incredibly funny and 
the copy lines totally speaks truth about all the cliches in the HP 
slash fandom! I laughed so hard at all of them! (and love how the 
Tonk/Ginny one got a pink and red hair girls on it!)
