Are you in search of the best stock photos that you can use for your blog or social media?
If you have been blogging for a few months now, you might already know how important it is to find the right stock photos for your brand.
I mean, when I first started blogging, I just used random stock photos from Canva without taking into consideration how they matched my brand and the overall design of my website.
Looking back, I should have searched for better options instead of wasting my time using stock images for my blog posts and Pinterest pins that do not match my theme at all.
I don’t want you to make the same mistake as I did, so I’ve gathered 23 websites where you can find the best stock photos that will make your blog look more professional!
The good news is most of them are FREE!!

WEBSITES THAT OFFER THE BEST STOCK PHOTOS FOR YOUR BLOG OR WEBSITE
#1. STYLED STOCK SOCIETY
I am a proud member of Styled Stock Society and I’m loving it! It is absolutely my favorite.
As an exclusive member, I do get a lot of awesome perks:
- Instant access to 3,000+ images plus new ones added every week
- Unlimited downloads which can be used for personal, commercial, or editorial purposes
- Hundreds of customizable Canva templates to help you create your Pinterest pins, social media graphics, email opt-ins, and more!
- + Bonus Resources
Honestly, the Canva templates alone are worth the entire price of the membership.
I got some of my Pinterest templates from them and they convert really well compared to my other pins.
Here’s an example of my results for two pins in just less than a day.
It may not seem much but it’s actually good considering that most of my pins nowadays only get less than 100 impressions.

#4. ADOBE STOCK
If you are a Creative Cloud user then an Adobe Stock Plan would be the best option for you.
It is fully integrated into the platform allowing you to have a seamless workflow, plus you can have a one-month trial with 10 stock images for free!
#5. CREATIVE MARKET
Creative Market is my go-to platform for graphics and templates as there are so many options for me to choose from.
As you can see above, the search results for the keyword “stock photos” showed more than 62,000 options, most of which are very affordable!
Powered by Creative Market
The great thing about Creative Market is that you can easily find the best stock photos that suit your brand or campaign because most of them are sold in bundles.
Here are some examples of my favorites which you can also check out:
Lovely, right?
Discover more beautiful stock images from Creative Market through the button below.
#6. PHOTODUNE BY ENVATO
I recently discovered PhotoDune by Envato Market which offers royalty-free stock photos for as low as $2USD.
Unlike Creative Market though, PhotoDune focuses on selling individual photos rather than bundles. It is still great if you are looking for something more specific for your website.
If you are not ready to avail yet, simply sign up through this link and you’ll get free photos as well as other graphics and templates from Envato sent straight to your inbox each month!
#7. ETSY
Aside from beautiful stock images, Etsy also offers tons of mockups that you can use for your blog.
So far, here are my favorites:
#8. DEPOSIT PHOTOS
Finally, I highly recommend Deposit Photos if you are looking for not just the best stock photos, but also vectors and professional stock videos that you can use for your next creative project.
While it is best to avail one of their subscription plans, Deposit Photos offers loads of photos, vectors, and videos that you can download for FREE!
