help in find command in linux

I am trying to find pictures which contains a specific word in the file name.
For example any .JPG files that contains "lm" at the beginning or at the middle or at the end of the file name.
Code:
find / -iname "*.jpg"  | ...

what should go after the pipe?


regards,
Moaathe
