How to add a photo

Adding a photo is easy in Adobe Express. Use a photo from your collection or one of ours to get started.

Whether you’re creating a video, a social post, a flyer, or something else, adding an image can make your work stand out. Images get more attention and are known to improve engagement. While you might have your own beautiful photography or digitally created images to share, you don’t need to be an artist to find and use images effectively. Adobe Express has thousands of Adobe Stock photos that you can choose from — or upload your own photo from your computer. 

Once you have an image you’d like to use in your own files, follow these instructions to add it:

1. Click “Upload from device.”  
2. Find the photo in your files.  
3. Click Upload.  

You can also start in your device folder, find the file you want to use and drag and drop it into the Editor. 

Another option is to use an Adobe Stock image. To explore the Adobe Stock library within Adobe Express, you can search by category or keyword.
