If you are writing text about the image above, how would you convey the pure ecstatic look on the faces of these women? Or, does the image of the child being passed through the fence tempt you to want to know more? Images are compelling! 
In 2022 1/3 of small businesses still do not have a website. 87% of those are looking to build a website in 2022. 20% want to create a site to sell online, and another 20% want to create photo galleries to enhance their credibility. 
Any industry can benefit from a website that features rich images. According to Thermopylane, humans process visual data better. The human brain processes images 60,000 times faster than text, and 90 percent of information transmitted to the brain is visual.
Any business can benefit from a gallery. Here are some trade businesses we have provided galleries for: architects, home builders, plumbing & bathroom fixture supplies, brick & stone masons, carpet, upholstery cleaners & supplies, ceiling & skylight services, and door companies, painters, paving, swimming pool builder, and welding services. 
The arts use galleries to showcase their work & wares, antiques, collectibles, clothing, materials & supplies, gift shops, jewelry, beauty salons, makeup artists, embroidery, florists, performing arts, and catering services. 
Service industries can use galleries to display their include assisted living & home health care, child care & services, dance studio, dog breeders, interior decorating services & supplies, dental equipment and supplies & manufacturing, personal trainers, vitamins & supplements, water purification suppliers, catering supplies.
Retail outlets like cosmetics sales & supplies, wedding supplies, computer stores, costume supplies, furniture, appliances, church supplies & manufacturers, party supplies, and pawn shops use galleries to showcase their collections.
In the travel industries, camps & campgrounds, bed & breakfast, travel agents, tourism, wineries & breweries, townships, cities & municipalities will benefit by showing their locations to travelers. 
Transportation companies like auto repair, detailing, vehicle glass, car dealership & sales, charter–party boats, chauffeur, and limousine services will gain customer confidence when they see your businesses' credibility.
This list is extensive, and many more industries and businesses will benefit from showcasing their collections. A picture is worth a thousand words" is an adage in multiple languages meaning that complex and sometimes numerous ideas can be conveyed by a single still image, which gives its meaning or essence more effectively than a mere verbal description.
Seeing something is better for learning than having it described. Remember to use multiple galleries on your website.  But, remeber you need an abundent amout of text for your site because search engines like Google are text driven.
