Is it possible for Elastic to store images? If so, are there only specific data types? Would they be processed or stored the same way all other data is stored i.e. index, type, docs, etc.

Can Elastic hold/store images?

You can store images using the binary type. But I'd not store big images IMHO.
See https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/binary.html
