How to Create an Image Collage
By Waleed Sheeraz, independent operator of A2Z Edit · Updated 2026-08-25
Collages turn a handful of shots into one shareable story — trips, product sets, before/after pairs. A2Z Edit unlocks layouts based on how many photos you add.
Everything runs in the browser: choose a template, nudge each cell, then download a single PNG.
How to Create an Image Collage
- Open the Image Collage maker.
- Add 2–6 photos to unlock layouts for that count.
- Set the collage aspect ratio, then pick a template (equal cells, tall top, wide left, and similar).
- Tap a cell to zoom or rotate that photo; adjust gap and background if needed.
- Download the finished PNG.
Why it matters
One image is easier to post than a scattered album on platforms that prefer a single upload.
Side-by-side layouts make comparisons obvious without a slide deck.
Tips
- Use similar lighting across photos so the grid feels cohesive.
- Leave a small gap if you want clean separators; tighten for a seamless look.
- Compress the PNG afterward if the collage is heavy for email.
Frequently asked questions
How many photos can I add?
