- Use one filter on all photos so the tones match.
- Keep borders consistent: either none or a thin white border.
- Leave breathing room. Fewer, better photos beat a crowded grid.
- Put faces away from cell edges.
- For a story, leave space at the top and bottom for app UI.
Avoid theseCommon mistakes with free photo collages
- Too many photos. Nine strong photos beat twenty weak ones.
- Mixed orientations in equal cells. Pick a layout whose cells match your photos.
- Low-resolution exports. Choose the highest quality when you save for print.
- Busy backgrounds. A solid or subtle background keeps the focus on your photos.
- Forgetting the platform. Stories crop the top and bottom, and feed posts favor 4:5.
PrintFree photo collage for print
Choose a print ratio before you arrange photos, export at the highest quality, and preview at full screen to check for crops.
