Does high quality pictures help with On-Page SEO?

I have never heard of a high quality image being good for SEO. Actually, it could hurt your website more. High quality images take longer to load on your page and that's bad. People don't want to wait for things to load and you run the risk of them leaving your site. The image should look clear and pleasing, but should be optimized for a fast load time.
