Stock Photos

Let’s admit it. In general, us Brits are an unfortunate-looking bunch. If British products were modelled by average British people, the country would probably fall into a recession. That’s why stock images are so brilliant. Here at Sizzle we’ve got access to a comprehensive library of photographs of all sorts of exciting activities, attractive people, and dramatic events, bringing your website to life through professionally-shot media, without breaking the bank.

Of course, you can always employ us to do your photography for you, if you’re willing to cough up the fee for models, studio hire, and our time. We’ve got super-high-resolution, industry-standard cameras in our design studio and we’re more than capable of producing stunning photographs. But, nearly always, stock images work out significantly cheaper and quicker.

We often hear people say it’s ‘cheating’ to use stock images, since the people on your website might not look anything like the real staff members. And if you agree, you’re more than welcome to use photos of their gurning mugs to promote your pride and joy. In the majority of cases, however, this would be a terrible strategy. The majority of web surfers make a decision on whether to stay on a particular site within a few seconds. First impressions don’t just ‘count’, they’re the difference between making a sale and losing a customer. So why not make as good a first impression as you can?

We’ve got the industry connections and organisation memberships to provide your site with stock images to illustrate pretty much any point. The price of images varies depending on a number of factors such as size and quality, so for further details you’ll have to contact our Manchester web design studio on the number at the top of the page!
