Why collages go wrong
Most collages look like a camera roll dropped into a grid.
Layouts
Start from a layout, not a blank grid.
Spacing, crops and proportions are already worked out. Drop a photo into any frame and drag to choose the crop.
- Grids for photo dumps and recaps
- Layered scrapbook looks
- Square, 4:5 and 9:16 sizes
- Moodboard and wallpaper layouts
Templates
Aesthetic templates for trips, birthdays and everyday posts.
Templates arrive styled, with spacing, type and background done. Replace the sample photos with yours and change the words.
- Travel, birthday, fashion and lifestyle
- Minimal, scrapbook and editorial styles
- Product and promo collages for businesses
- Edit in your browser or in the iOS and Android app
Film and scrapbook
Film strips, frames and borders.
A frame gives a pile of photos a shape. Use a film strip for a recap, or a scrapbook edge for a softer look, then add a caption, a date or a label.
- Film-style frames
- Scrapbook edges and borders
- Captions, dates and labels
- Premium fonts, stickers and frames come with Pro
Finish in one place
Match the photos, then rescue the weak ones.
Apply the same filter to each photo so mixed lighting reads as one set. On Pro, AI Enhance, Background Remover and Magic Eraser fix the shots that need help before they go in.
- Film-inspired and vintage filters
- The same filter on every photo
- AI Enhance (Pro)
- Background Remover and Magic Eraser (Pro)
