I purchased by website theme from creativemarketplace.com. It’s a great place to find awesome-looking, more professional themes and the ones I’ve used were fairly easy to install and customize. And as for post photos, I’ve just been using the option Wordpress gives to find free stock photos from Pexel. πŸ™‚ Hope that helps!
