Make sure your image tags are completely populated with title and alt attributes. Also, include a something in the body of the page that discusses the photo. If you have an image named smiling-man and it's just there on the page, it's not going to be ranked as highly as if you mention a "smiling man photo" in the text on the page.

Forgot to mention that I'm already using Google Analytics and the Webmaster Tools. It could be a time issue before the images show up but I don't think that I have made any changes that could affect the images being listed or not. I could be missing something but it would be good if anyone has experienced similar thing before.
