Say it with photos.

You can add your own photos, instructional screenshots, and saved images from the web to any slide. Since presentations are a visual medium, consider how you can communicate ideas with images rather than words.

Try it.

Add a photo. Click Media in the toolbar and choose Photos or Videos to select a photo from your library. You can also drag an image from your desktop onto the slide.

Apply it.

  • Hone your visual communication skills. Challenge yourself or your students to build a presentation without words, using only full‑screen photos.

  • Explore imagery as an element of fiction, poetry, or historical narrative. Create slides that connect meaningful quotes with photos that support them.

Go further.

With the Remove Background tool, you can remove an unwanted background or color from a photo, keeping only the subject. Add a photo with a single object or person in the foreground, then remove the background with cropping and Remove Background.
