An example of where a photo collage works- Title Slide. Could also be used on the final slide.

Some corporations have company powerpoint templates to match their branding.

Consider coming up with your own template that matches your website. You do not have to fill every inch of the slide. Include your name and website on each slide.

Balance your slides with graphics. Don’t be afraid to use relevant photos/graphics/clipart in conjunction with the text.
