We can't all afford amazing photographers and models, let alone find the time to organise a photo shoot! Luckily, there are plenty of websites with beautiful stock images that you can use for your site. Lots of these sites require a monthly subscription or charge a fee for each image you use, but there are plenty of places with images totally free from copyright restrictions or with creative commons public domain licensing, which means you can use them however you like, without requiring attribution. [![](https://media1-production-mightynetworks.imgix.net/asset/35252452/pexels-alexandr-podvalny-2781814.jpg?ixlib=rails-0.3.0&fm=jpg&q=75&auto=format&w=1400&h=1400&fit=max&impolicy=ResizeCrop&constraint=downsize&aspect=fit)](https://media1-production-mightynetworks.imgix.net/asset/35252452/pexels-alexandr-podvalny-2781814.jpg?ixlib=rails-4.2.0&fm=jpg&q=75&auto=format) Be aware though, that because these images are free, they're often used widely, and they often look quite generic. For those of you who are just starting out, free is definitely best, and when you can afford it, you can think about paying for some images, for more of a premium look. I created [this example site](https://wilims-school.jimdosite.com/) entirely with free stock images, just to give you an idea of what's available. Try to think outside the box when you're searching - don't just type in "happy student", although that's not a bad place to start!

All of their photos are released under creative commons public domain, so no attribution is required. ## [Unsplash](https://unsplash.com/) Unsplash has a large collection and is one of the most popular sources for stock images online. All their photos are released for free under Unsplash's own license. ## [Pexels](https://www.pexels.com/) Pexels' collection is licensed under the Creative Commons Zero license, so again, totally free to use. They also have free stock video clips, which are really high quality. ## [Pixabay](https://pixabay.com/) Pixabay has large collection of photos as well as illustrations and videos, all released with the Creative Commons Zero licence. ![Wilim Abrook](https://getmorestudents.learncube.com/hs-fs/hubfs/1599317682265-1.jpg?width=150&name=1599317682265-1.jpg) #### Wilim Abrook Head of Education at LearnCube & Expert Online English Teacher ### Leave a Comment ## Related Articles [![](https://media1-production-mightynetworks.imgix.net/asset/34198065/1643222432497.png?ixlib=rails-0.3.0&fm=jpg&q=75&auto=format&w=1400&h=1400&fit=max&impolicy=ResizeCrop&constraint=downsize&aspect=fit)](https://getmorestudents.learncube.com/where-do-i-start) [Digital marketing](https://getmorestudents.learncube.com/tag/digital-marketing) [GMS Podcast](https://getmorestudents.learncube.com/tag/gms-podcast) [Starting from Scratch](https://getmorestudents.learncube.com/tag/starting-from-scratch) ### [I'm Starting an Online Education Business - Where Do I Start?!](https://getmorestudents.learncube.com/where-do-i-start) It's easy to get stuck, bewildered by the volume of information out there, or to go down a rabbit hole, focusing on just one area of your business.  ![Wilim Abrook](https://getmorestudents.learncube.com/hs-fs/hubfs/1599317682265-1.jpg?width=45&name=1599317682265-1.jpg) [Wilim Abrook](https://getmorestudents.learncube.com/author/wilim-abrook) [Read More](https://getmorestudents.learncube.com/where-do-i-start) [![](https://getmorestudents.learncube.com/hubfs/GMS%20logo%20square%20(1).png)](https://getmorestudents.learncube.com/gms-weekly-challenge10) [Digital marketing](https://getmorestudents.learncube.com/tag/digital-marketing) [GMS Podcast](https://getmorestudents.learncube.com/tag/gms-podcast) [Starting from Scratch](https://getmorestudents.learncube.com/tag/starting-from-scratch) ### [GMS Weekly Challenge #10 - Refine Your About Info](https://getmorestudents.learncube.com/gms-weekly-challenge10) The “about” section on your website is where you can tell*your*story. ![Wilim Abrook](https://getmorestudents.learncube.com/hs-fs/hubfs/1599317682265-1.jpg?width=45&name=1599317682265-1.jpg) [Wilim Abrook](https://getmorestudents.learncube.com/author/wilim-abrook) [Read More](https://getmorestudents.learncube.com/gms-weekly-challenge10) #### About - Menu Item One - Menu Item Two - Menu Item Three #### Services - Menu Item One - Menu Item Two - Menu Item Three #### News - Menu Item One - Menu Item Two - Menu Item Three Follow us on Facebook Follow us on LinkedIn Follow us on Twitter Follow us on Instagram
