Don’t know if this is what you mean, but for me I like to search for the thing I need like “Kitchen” and then add “render” to the search.

Adding “render” often gives better angles and there are almost never people in the photos.

If I find a photo with the feel and look that I am after, I then go to the creator’s page and look at all their photos.

Chances are that when it is a render, they have uploaded other angles of the same room, which is something I often want and need in order to make the scenes I like to write.

An example I just found on Unsplash. 3 different angels. All great for different scenes
