Canva

When I design for you, I use the Adobe Creative Suite, such as Photoshop and Illustrator. If you are unfamiliar with these programs, I often recommend using Canva if you are maintaining your own website. I have used this quite extensively myself for personal projects and their program is very intuitive and easy to use. It is especially great for social media posts.

Unsplash

Photography and images are what make and break your design. I believe that a true authentic website features your own photos. I know that it may not be in your marketing budget to hire a professional photographer, so if you must, then do use royalty free stock photography but select them carefully. Unsplash has a really good selection and covers almost every category.
