Abstract: An image forming method uses an electrophotographic photoreceptor and a toner for developing an electrostatic charge image. The image forming method has a charging step, an exposure step, a developing step, a transfer step and a cleaning step, wherein the charging step uses a contact charging device; the photoreceptor has a universal hardness value (HU) of 170 N/mm2 or more, and an elastic deformation ratio of 40% or more when a Vickers indenter is used in a predetermined environment and pushed by a maximum load of 2 mN. The toner for developing an electrostatic charge image contains toner base particles of a core-shell structure having a shell layer of 10% by mass or less with respect to a mass of a toner base particle on an outside of a resin constituting a core particle, and a solubility parameter value (SPs) of a resin constituting the shell layer is 10.75 or less.
