Photo Collage Maker
Combine up to nine photos into a clean grid. Everything runs in your browser — nothing is uploaded.
How to Use
- 1. Add your photos by dropping them in or choosing files.
- 2. Pick a layout and an output size.
- 3. Adjust spacing, corner rounding and the background colour.
- 4. Download the finished collage as PNG or JPG.
Making a Collage That Reads Well
Every slot here is filled edge to edge, which means a photo whose shape does not match its slot gets centred and cropped rather than squashed. That is almost always the right call — a distorted face is far more noticeable than a tighter crop — but it does mean the layout you pick decides how much of each frame survives. Portraits sit better in tall slots, landscapes in wide ones.
Spacing does more work than people expect. A collage with no gaps reads as one busy image; a few pixels of background between frames separates them into distinct photos and gives the eye somewhere to rest. Pair that with a background colour picked from the photos themselves rather than plain white, and the whole thing looks composed rather than assembled.
For social media, 1:1 and 4:5 are the standard feed shapes and 9:16 fills a story or reel. All three export at 1080 pixels wide, which is what those platforms actually display, so there is nothing to gain from going larger.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many photos can I put in one collage?
Up to nine, depending on the layout you choose. Extra images beyond the current layout’s slots are kept rather than dropped, so switching to a bigger grid picks them up without re-uploading.
Are my photos uploaded to a server?
No. The collage is drawn on a canvas inside your browser and exported locally. Your photos never leave your device, which also means the tool works offline once the page has loaded.
Why are my photos cropped?
Each slot is filled edge to edge, so an image whose shape does not match its slot is centred and cropped rather than squashed or letterboxed. Choosing a layout closer to your photos’ own aspect ratio keeps more of each frame.
Should I export PNG or JPG?
JPG for photo collages — it is far smaller at equivalent visual quality. PNG for collages containing screenshots, text or flat graphics, where JPG compression leaves visible artefacts around hard edges.
What size should I use for social media?
Square 1:1 and portrait 4:5 are the standard feed sizes, and 9:16 matches full-screen stories and reels. All three export at 1080 pixels wide, which is what most platforms display at.
