It depends if you have the very high quality of images with the unique keyword targets so you can use image sitemaps. It's up to you. But its definitely be an SEO factor for your website ranking. For small sites, there are lots of free tools for generation image sitemap and for large websites, there are paid generators.I would like to prefer ScreamingFrog (paid) for large websites.
