Mykola

Depositphotos is a platform for visual content solutions, with advanced search tools and algorithms that provide images for every theme. We preach the intelligent approach to visuals for the most effective results.

Well-thought-out visuals can really alter the perception of your brand. A well-curated selection of images can boost the engagement of your audience, communicate your brand values, and build a rapport with customers. Photography, videos, and graphics immediately capture the attention of customers, form the first impression and the lingering aftertaste.

For this reason, we don’t just sell subscriptions; we coach our users in visual strategies. Every week we publish new hand-picked photo collections in our blog to familiarize our users with emerging trends and new creative icons.

In this article, we are going to review the best photo collections for graphic and web designers. We will also throw in tips on how to choose visuals to impress and captivate your target audience.

12 Brand Archetypes

Most brand personalities can be narrowed down to 12 brand archetypes. We talked about the basics of the 12 brand archetypes with an accent on the types of visuals you should be using depending on the personality and vibes of your brand. These collections are intended to help you select visuals that are indicative of your main goals, subtle messages you want to send to your target audience, and your brand strategy.
You should think through how people interpret your visuals. Visuals without a purpose is a complete waste of money and time. Don’t choose images that have nothing to do with your brand and values. Try to infuse your brand with personality. Images from these collections can be used for social media posts, corporate websites, landing pages, or new designs.

Trendy Images: 2019 Edition

This year’s selection of trendy images is based on our expert-report 2019 visual trends and content that performed exceptionally well on our platform. This collection covers various topics with a primary focus on visual storytelling. It contains bold experiments with double exposure, close up details, atypical angles, and aerial footage. Those visuals (if used correctly), can enrich your marketing narrative with storytelling elements and add a trendy twist.

Neon Sign and Colors

Neon is one of the main graphic design trends of 2019, perhaps due to the revival of retro aesthetics - synthwave music, and nostalgia for 1980’s film soundtracks and videogames. In this photo collection, we try to trace the roots of retrofuturism and trace the essence of this trend in a thematic collection.

Backgrounds for Quotes

The quote is a powerful tool to add credibility to your messages. However, there is always not enough images to fit the quote. The image has to be intriguing, yet plain to keep the focal point on the quote.

200 Ready-to-use Quotes


Every marketer knows the struggle for the search of minimalistic background images with enough space. If you can relate to that, we put together a collection of enlightening, inspiring, and simple images that would be perfect for quotes. We intentionally make the collection diverse to fit any occasion. It consists of landscapes, indoor settings, patterns that works ideally as a neutral background for landings and websites.

Textures for Designers

This collection of textures and patterns is perfect for designers who seek to add character to their projects. Those patterns are an excellent fit for the eye-catching landings and captivating campaigns. Whether it is a kitchen texture or charismatic wall paint - it is an additional layer of meaning in your composition.

Those images can be seamlessly integrated into any compositions and work miracles for web-design. Our hand-picked selection of images can also be utilized as backgrounds for quotes or default website images. Review our collection of textures and save your favorites!

Social Media Dominates

Technologies and digital communications are central topics of the news coverage and point of interest for content marketing. Nevertheless, it is often tough to illustrate the events in this “virtual” world. Indeed, a search query in any photo bank will give you plenty of symbolic representations of abstract concepts. However, those visuals rarely serve the purpose of illustrating big ideas or highlighting important concepts. That is why we decided to compile an extensive selection of visuals to cover all the noteworthy topics on social media.

From now on, you can streamline your search for social media related visuals, and quickly find pictures of laptops, social media icons, and people engaging with technologies. Those are solid media visuals to illustrate abstract concepts and ideas and come out as relatable and people-oriented. You never know when you need to illustrate technological concepts, so keep this collection handy in case the topic of technology will come up.

Urban Exploration

Commonly, urban exploration visuals feature construction sites, rooftops, and sewers. They are associated with accessing restricted locations and presenting the raw image of the city. We aspired to promote this sense of adventure and present visuals that talk street style, youth, and novelty.

This collection is about discovering new cites with a fresh perspective and an unconventional point of view. In our urban exploration collection, you will explore the city through the eyes of photographers, both local enthusiasts, and digital nomads. Take a look at the intricate details and eclectic architecture that often remain unnoticed.

Finally Summer

Summer spells freedom, adventure, and wanderlust. It is a time of careless strolling around the waterfront or the local beach, indulging in cocktails and open-air festivities. A summer is also a newsworthy event and a plausible cause to refresh your website and social media pages with summer-vibe visuals. Our summer collection is not only beaches, drinks and summer pastimes, but also unparalleled artistic angels and experiments. If you are striving to engage your audience constantly, you should definitely take a note of this collection.

Strictly Business

“Business” is one of the most searched categories in our library. Business visuals are widely used for the corporate website, in-house materials, and inbound marketing. Bearing this in mind, we put together an up-to-date collection that reflects the emerging demands of the market.

The visual language you use to talk about your own company is reflective of your brand’s vibe, values, and professionalism. Coherent pictures can sharpen your messages and enable you to reach the appropriate audience. Relish our collection of the most popular topic from our library and save those that speak the language of your brand.

Perfect Landscapes

Our landscape collection features some of the most versatile and memorable images for various kinds of projects. Bucolic countryside, rustic cities and tranquil pictures of nature - this collection showcase some of the most picturesque spots on the planet. Check out this selection of fascinating scenery.

Your Coach in Visual Strategy
