Stock photos are always super handy. Sometimes you just don’t have time to make good or beautiful pictures. I am not a fan of using ugly pictures on my blog of course. Today I share 50 free(!) stock photo sites with you.

The advantage of stock photos

The advantage of stock photos is actually very simple. You download these pictures easily, you save a lot of time and you don’t have to worry that these pictures aren’t perfect. You can choose these stock photos yourself, so these are always perfect.

The disadvantage of stock photos

Of course, it is not very original to use those photos. It is possible that a picture you use on your blog, get used on another site the next day. You don’t have this issue if you use your own pictures which you make yourself. Besides that, you need to pay attention if the pictures are real stock photos. Sometimes they are just an advert or you aren’t allowed to use the pictures.

Where do you need to pay attention to?

On every stock photo site, it is explained where you can use the pictures and when you are not allowed to use the pictures. I recommend reading these rules, because if you use the photos wrong then this is a violation of the author rights. Of course, we don’t want a warning or a fine.
