Craving sun, sea and beach, even when you're just at your desk? A summer background in Teams brings holiday vibes to your meeting right away. Here is a selection of free summer photos from Unsplash and how to set them.
How to set a background
- Right-click an image below and choose Save image as.
- In the new Teams, open the pre-join screen of a meeting, or during the meeting select the arrow next to Camera.
- Choose Video effects and settings (the exact name can vary, for example Effects and avatars).
- Under Backgrounds, select Add new and pick your image.
- Select the background and choose Apply.
A landscape image of about 1920 × 1080 pixels works best. The images on this page are resized; for a sharper version, look up the photo on the original photo site. Note that an admin can turn off custom backgrounds, and with Teams Premium your organization can also provide official backgrounds. More in set a custom background in Teams.

Tip: for a work meeting, pick a calm photo of the sea or beach, so you stay clearly visible. Also see LEGO backgrounds for Teams.
