14 Free Places for Feminine Stock Photos

Ladies, are you ready for this?! Free feminine stock photos for your blog?!

We all know that having great photos on your website is a must! We live in a highly visual world and most people decide whether they like your site enough to stay and poke around in about 3 seconds. That’s all you get for a first impression – pretty rough. So, how do you invite your readers in and engage them?

• Clear, uncluttered site design
• Engaging blog header
• Fresh, clear content
• Professional looking photos

I don’t know about your photography skills, but mine are a work in progress. I do need to take some photos myself, but for the most part I rely on stock images. It can be time consuming and tricky to find photos that go with the content I am creating. But, to establish a social media presence and engage your readers, it a non negotiable.

So, I have compiled a list of my favorite websites to get FREE, beautiful stock images that you can use for your websites and social media platforms.

Shay Cochrane  – Stockshop

Gorgeous styled images, bright colors, new designs constantly. She will even send you free stock images monthly if you sign up as an Insider.

Haute Chocolate – Rachel

I think many bloggers know about Rachel and her awesome stock library. The photos I use on my blog are mostly free photos I have received from signing up for her newsletter. You receive free stock photos along with branding tips in your inbox every month. Easily one of my favorites!
