Photo Collage Maker
Combine up to nine photos into one image with grid layouts, spacing and rounded corners. 100% free, no signup. Everything runs in your browser.
Loading the tool…
Sometimes you just need four photos in one picture. A before and after for a client, three room shots for a listing, a 3x3 grid of the weekend for a group chat. I built this because every collage app I tried wanted an account, then a subscription, then stamped its own logo across the corner of my photographs. Drop 2 to 9 images here, pick a layout, and download the result as a PNG or JPG. No watermark, no signup, no export limit.
The layouts cover the shapes people actually use: a 2x2 grid, a 3x3 grid, a simple side by side, and one big image with a strip of smaller ones alongside it. You control the spacing between tiles, the background color that shows through those gaps, how rounded the corners are, and the pixel size of the finished image. Everything is drawn on a canvas inside your browser, so your photos are never uploaded. If your images need trimming before they go in, the crop tool is the step before this one.
How to use
- Drop your photos onto the box, or press the button and select them. Two is the minimum and nine is the maximum.
- Pick a layout: the 2x2 grid, the 3x3 grid, side by side, or one large image with a strip of smaller ones.
- Set the spacing between tiles. Zero gives a seamless block, a larger value gives each photo room to breathe.
- Choose a background color. It shows through the gaps and around rounded corners, so white and black read very differently.
- Adjust the corner rounding if you want softer tiles instead of hard rectangles.
- Set the output size in pixels, keeping in mind where the collage is going to be posted or printed.
- Download as PNG for the sharpest edges, or JPG for a smaller file, and check the preview before you save.
Why use our photo collage maker?
No watermark is not a feature, it is the absence of an insult, and it is the main reason this exists. Free collage apps overwhelmingly treat your finished image as advertising space. Here what you assemble is what downloads. There is no account, no export counter, no daily limit and no upsell screen between you and the file. Eleven versions while you fiddle with spacing is eleven clean downloads.
The part I got wrong first was the spacing default. My original version butted every photo against its neighbors with zero gap, which looked tight in my head and cheap in practice, because a busy photo bleeding into another busy photo reads as noise. A few pixels of background between tiles does more for a collage than any filter, and once corner rounding arrived the same collage suddenly looked deliberate. That is why spacing, background color and rounding sit next to each other: they are one decision, not three.
Controlling the output size matters more than people expect, because a collage always has a destination. A square export around 1080 pixels suits an Instagram post, something wider suits a blog header or an email. Exporting at the size you need beats exporting huge and letting a platform resize it badly, and if you are unsure what shape you want, the aspect ratio calculator works the numbers out. PNG keeps edges crisp, JPG keeps the file small, and for a photo heavy collage JPG is the sensible pick.
Everything is drawn with the browser's own Canvas API, the same surface web apps use for games and charts. Your photos are read from disk into that canvas and composed on your machine. They are not uploaded, not queued on a server, and not held anywhere after you close the tab. For family photos, client work under NDA and pictures of children, that is the difference between a convenience and a risk.
What I refuse to add: sticker packs, cartoon frames, filter presets and a font library. There are a hundred apps for that and they are all cluttered. This one does the boring, useful thing well, which is putting several images into one image with sane geometry. Fewer controls, but the ones that are here are the ones that change how the result actually looks.
Who is this tool for?
Sellers on marketplaces and rental sites use it constantly. One listing photo showing the kitchen, the bathroom and the garden together gets more attention than three separate images buried in a gallery. Trades and contractors do the same with before and after shots, the most persuasive image a service business can post.
Social posting is the obvious one. A 3x3 grid of a trip, a side by side of two outfits, a four panel product shot for a small shop. With no watermark the collage looks like something you made rather than something an app made, which matters on a brand account. Pair it with the hashtag generator when the caption is the next problem.
In the office it earns its place in reports and decks. Four screenshots of a dashboard in one image beats four images stacked down a slide. Teachers build worksheets and displays, researchers assemble figure panels, and anyone documenting a process wants steps one through four in a single frame.
Personal projects round it out: a photo card for a birthday, a moodboard for a renovation, a printable memory page. Set a larger output size for anything destined for a printer, since a collage that looks fine on a phone looks soft on paper.
Frequently asked questions
No. Nothing is added to your image, there is no branding in the corner, and no limit on how many collages you make or download.
No. They are read by your browser and drawn onto a canvas on your device. No copy reaches a server, so nothing can be stored or scanned.
Between two and nine. The cap is deliberate: past nine each tile gets so small on screen that the collage stops communicating anything.
Each tile is filled with its image, so a tall photo in a wide slot shows its center rather than the whole frame. If a specific part must be visible, crop it to roughly the right shape first.
JPG for photographs, because the file is much smaller and the difference is invisible in a collage. PNG when it contains screenshots, text or graphics with hard edges you want kept sharp.
A square around 1080 by 1080 pixels is the safe default for a feed post. Exporting close to the size the platform displays beats uploading something enormous and letting it be resized.
Yes. It runs in a mobile browser and you can pick images straight from your camera roll. Large photos take a moment longer to draw on an older phone.
That is the opposite job and there is a tool for it. The image splitter slices one picture into a grid of equal tiles, which is what you want for a grid style profile post.
