One of the biggest challenges when we make a website or a publicity (or anything) is to find awesome photos at a good cost (or free, depending), and is not that it’s bad to pay for a photograph, but sometimes the client is either small or our budget is low. There are thousands of online services that provide high quality photographs for a monthly price, package or photo, however, there is a world of websites that offer pics for free under a super friendly licence. Lets see some of my favorites:
Pixabay is a great service where their tags and categories order are the key to find whatever you need. They don’t require to register and it’s interface is quite similar to 500px, so finding and downloading content is a piece of cake.
PicJumbo it’s a site that has a huge variety of content, besides having an easy plugin for your browser that lets you know when new content is added. They add photos every day, so you will never run out of fresh content for all your needs.
Death to Stock Photo is a service where you subscribe through their website, and they sent you 10 photographs every months usually themed by the month holiday or something related, with an awesome quality and a super useful variety. Each time you receive a mail from them you will get excited just to check the subject, knowing that an explosion of creativity just hit your email.
New Old Stock is a collection of old public photographs of all kind without any legal restriction. It’s like a Tumblr which makes it quite hard to find an specific photo, however, the amount of photographs and historic moments that it has is simply gorgeous.
Little Visuals follows the Death to StockPhoto style but every 7 days. They have gorgeous photos under a friendly licence, but what makes their site great is that they have the packs historic available, so if you missed one or you’re just joining them, you will be able to check the previous packs and download what you need.
