Ick-free Stock Photo Recommendations
read the post
Let’s be real, your audience doesn’t want to see another painfully staged, perfectly lit, corporate-looking photo of someone fake-laughing with a salad. They want real. They want scroll-stopping. They want vibes. Enter: Dupe (@dupephotos on IG), the royalty-free stock photo site that actually gets it.
Why I’m Obsessed With Dupe
I’ve tried all the stock photo tools over the years, and most just… don’t hit. But Dupe? Dupe is different. It’s casual, aesthetic, relatable — and exactly what your content has been missing. Think:
✨ iPhone-captured, not overly polished
✨ Feels like your best mate’s IG, not a stock archive
✨ Perfect for reels, carousels, memes, blog headers and beyond
⚠️ Important PSA: These are not here to replace your pro photos. They’re here to FILL THE GAPS between them — especially when you’re posting consistently and don’t want your feed to go stale.
Casual, But Curated As Hell
Dupe has thousands of everyday-style images and videos designed to blend beautifully with your brand — without looking like stock. What I love most? You can search by vibe. That’s right. No more random keyword searching or trawling through awkward handshake photos. Here are just a few of the aesthetics you can explore:
-
city girl
-
romantic
-
clean girl
-
euro summer
-
minimalist
-
luxury
-
artsy
-
travel
-
outdoorsy
-
wellness
-
academia
… and so many more. Basically, if it belongs on Pinterest, it’s probably on Dupe.
The Bottom Line?
You need content that feels like your audience — and Dupe delivers every time.
So whether you’re trying to:
-
fill out your Reels B-roll folder
-
zhuzh up your carousel posts
-
stop relying on the same 5 launch pics you’ve reused for two years…
Dupe’s got your back.
