A collage tells a story that a single photo cannot: a trip in six pictures, a product from every side, a birthday from cake to candles. This tool gives you ready layouts that adapt to the number of photos you add, so you spend your time choosing and arranging pictures rather than drawing grids.
Your photos are combined in your browser and are not uploaded.
How to use it
- Add 2 to 9 photos.
- Choose a layout. The options change with the number of photos, usually about three per count: grids, one large photo with smaller ones, columns or rows.
- Choose a canvas size: square 1080, portrait 1080 × 1350, story 1080 × 1920, landscape 1920 × 1080, or A4 at 150 DPI.
- Adjust the gap between photos, the outer margin, the corner radius and the background color.
- Arrange the photos: click a cell to swap it with another, or reorder them in the list.
- Download the collage as JPG or PNG.
How photos fill the cells
Each photo fills its cell completely and is cropped from the center. Nothing is stretched, but the edges of a photo can be trimmed when its shape differs from the cell's shape.
A few habits avoid unwanted cuts:
- Put portrait photos in tall cells and landscape photos in wide cells.
- Give the large cell to the photo that matters most, usually the one with faces or the main subject.
- If a subject sits near the edge of the photo, crop it first with Crop image so the subject is centered, then add it to the collage.
Choosing the canvas
| Canvas | Size | Good for |
|---|---|---|
| Square | 1080 × 1080 | Instagram posts, chat messages |
| Portrait | 1080 × 1350 | Instagram feed, where it takes more screen space |
| Story | 1080 × 1920 | Stories, Reels covers, phone wallpapers |
| Landscape | 1920 × 1080 | Slides, video, desktop wallpapers |
| A4 at 150 DPI | about 1240 × 1754 | Printing at home on A4 paper |
150 DPI is fine for snapshots on a printed page viewed at arm's length, but a 300 DPI print would be sharper. Social media sizes are common recommendations and platforms change them, so check the social media image sizes guide when it matters.
Gaps, margins and colors
Thin white gaps give the classic photo-album look. A gap of zero creates a seamless mosaic that works well when the photos share similar colors. Rounded corners soften the grid and look modern on phone screens.
For the background, a color taken from the photos themselves ties everything together. The color palette tool extracts the dominant colors of any photo and gives you the HEX code to paste in.
Frequently asked questions
Can I use more than nine photos?
No, the collage maker takes up to nine. For more images, Combine images can arrange any set of photos in a grid with the number of columns you choose.
Why are parts of my photos cut off?
Every photo fills its cell and is cropped from the center when the shapes differ. Swap photos between cells, choose another layout, or crop the photo beforehand to keep the important part in the middle.
Can I print the collage?
Yes. Choose the A4 canvas at 150 DPI and print at actual size. For larger prints or close viewing, the result will look softer than a dedicated 300 DPI file.
Are my photos uploaded?
No. The collage is created in your browser, and your photos stay on your device.
