Apple's Notes app has long been pretty basic, but happily iOS 8 added some new features. You can now insert photos in your notes as well as apply the text attributes of bold, italic, and underline. It's not real fancy, but it's great to have some more options.
To insert a photo into a note, tap and hold where you'd like to insert the photo. In the menu bar that appears, select Insert Photo.
Then select a photo from the dropdown menu that appears. Your photo will then be inserted into the text.
To apply formatting to text in the Notes app, select some text by tapping and holding and then choosing Select.
Then once you've selected some text, a new menu bar appears that includes BIU as an option.
Select that, and a new menu appears that gives you the choices of Bold, Italics, Underline. Tap on one, and your text will be formatted accordingly.
