If you’re like me, you always need photos for your website or other marketing projects. Of course you might have to pay for that “perfect” picture, but free is always better.
I’m sure you’ve heard about the great free sites like Pixabay, Pexels and Unsplash — to name just a few — but there may be a couple of others you hadn’t thought about using for free photos.
For example, at DepositPhotos you can get a free picture (like the one seen at the top of this page) on a weekly basis. And not only pictures, but also a free weekly vector image, video and editorial image.
Just open your email every week and download the free files!
Of course if you don’t want to wait, you can do a search for photos here.
BONUS TIP: DepositPhotos has a page featuring the past few weeks of free files, so if you miss a week or two from your email reminder, just check that page monthly to grab the last files.
And there are other sites like Pond5 and even Envato Elements (screenshot below) and Envato Marketplace that also will send you weekly free resources!
There's lots of great online sites for free pictures, images, videos and vectors, but did you know that you can get free downloads emailed directly to you on a weekly basis? Click To Tweet
It may take a while, but if you’re consistent in opening the emails every week and downloading the files, you’ll assemble quit a library of high-quality pictures, vectors and video clips.
BONUS TIP: I create subfolders in my pictures/images/video folders named after the source they came from, i.e. DepositPhotos. Then every free file I get from that source goes in that subfolder. It makes it easy to know what online source I got the image from and I also add additional words at the end like “free,” etc. so I’ll know if the image was a free file.
