"Illustration" for me but it depends on whom you're making it to

Illustration for me. It gives the brand a personality that stock-style photos usually can't match.

I think it really depends on your audience and who you build for. For some part of people will be enough to only check the title of card + abstract illustrations, but for the audience that not really friendly with sites (old people for example) - it would be better to associate service and their need with specific image.

Went with illustration. The photo version is clean but the illustrated blocks give the page more personality.

Definitely illustration. The illustrated cards look warm, modern and unique. The photo version feels a bit too much like typical office stock images.

illustration. the hero is already a photo, so the illustrated cards give the page a second texture. with photos all the way down the grid kind of melts into the hero

Photography, your target audience are organizations.

I'll prefer photos, specially talking about organizations in your page, human faces and real scenarios can have a better effect in this case.

Photography: I give each blog and individual blog indenitity, and the Illustration page feels we have main blog on to and the smaller cards (bottom section) is the part of upper section. That what 85% user may feel at a first glance.
