Google:
Google is the most overlooked resource of amazing audio, pictures, and music libraries. It is a very ordinary method but it is overlooked quite often.
First of all, you have to open your Google search bar.
Let us consider that you are an illustrator of a dark academia book, search for dark academia, and click images.
After clicking on images you will see a bunch of images related to your search, but all of them are copyright reserved.
Now here is the trick, now you have to click on tools, click on the usage rights, and then lastly there will be two options; the creative commons licenses and the commercial and other licenses.
Select your preferred option and boom; now you have gotten perfect photos for your book illustration without spending a single penny.
