1. Structure your thoughts
Before you start looking for an image, you should be clear about what you are looking for. I mean, I really mean clear to you. Think about what motives or feelings you want. The first thing you will think of is probably the most typical and perhaps cliché-filled way to illustrate what you are looking for, so please think about a lap. Weave who is the target group, how to reflect
your brand identity in image and which images will increase the attention value and credibility.
Generally, images of people are good at capturing the recipient's interest. If you have the freedom to choose, then the eye-lying images, images that surround the viewer rather than the eye must be zigzag-like from top to bottom – as in a portrait image.
Our eyes are also addressed by geometric shapes. Find yourself in images you like, certainly it is often possible to find a
geometric shape or relationship in the image? A diagonal, a circle?
Another classic approach is to create a contrast between headline and image. The image communicates one thing but the headline moves in another direction. The brain stops and wants to work, understand how the context is.
2. Give the search engine a chance to show you good images
The most common mistake we make is that we forget an oh so important step in the process. The step where you yourself transform concepts into symbols. You need to transform concepts into symbols and words that you can actually search for. It is the words that will make it easier to find the image you are looking for.
Few – if any – search engines in this industry will give you a good result on words such as
"availability", "declining exclusion" or "citizen involvement". You have to figure out what you want to illustrate for you. "Citizen influence" may be an image of people's lives in a city, a portrait of a happy person or something else, but make sure that you translate what you want to find in your image into simple symbols and words. It is the words that will make it easier for you to find the image you are looking for.
Another way to help the search engine on the stack is not to
over-specify what you are looking for. If you don't get hit on "female dog sledding Alaska" then back and search in more general terms such as "woman dog winter USA". Use the largest common denominator instead of giving too many details if you do not get a good result on the first attempt.
3. Let the images speak the same language
You probably don't like dubbed advertising, so apply the same thought when looking for images. Let the images speak the same language as the ones you turn to. Otherwise, you risk building a barrier between the recipients and you who damage the credibility of your message.
This means that if you turn to an audience in USA then make an effort to find images
that those who live here can identify with. Do you feel that the image does not feel natural, your recipients will feel the same.
4. Memorize the good keywords that simplify your life

When I want to be inspired, I click on
new images on the start page or I go to the page
our images with different selection of images, especially selected by Johnér's image experts. Another tip is to use the keyword
conceptual o be inspired by images that are not so easily defined by common keywords. Remember that you can filter your search so that you can only search for
Scandinavian
photographers.
Still
life – beautiful still life in various subjects such as nature, gardening, interior design.
