The stock photography you choose to represent your brand plays a big part in attracting your desired clientele. Does the imagery you’re displaying on behalf of your company resonate with your target audience? Stock photography is used nearly everywhere in digital marketing these days – from websites to blogs to social media platforms to email marketing blasts – which is why it’s more important than ever before that you’re selecting the right imagery for your business. In the past, many stock photography websites were unbearably cheesy and staged, but in recent years, a plethora of free stock photography websites offering more natural images have popped up across the Internet. Here are three of our favorite websites for awesome stock photography – all for free download and free for commercial use!
