Best Places to Find Free Zoom Backgrounds
Many websites offer free backgrounds for video talks, but there are few. If you don’t want to settle for a limited choice of backgrounds, I would recommend a few stock photo sites to help you pick the best you like. Go to these sites only if you have time, because choices are plentiful. The best part is that all these images are completely free to use!
Zoom
Zoom offers many virtual backgrounds on their official site. It is easy to pick a professional background to suit your needs.
Pexels
Pexels is a free stock photo site. You can download any of their photos for free under their license. There are almost 140,000 images on their site. The good news is that over 100,000 photos are good for Zoom backgrounds. Search for “Zoom backgrounds” and you will see overwhelming choices.
