How to put two photos side by side
- Drop two photos together. They appear next to each other.
- Set the gap, the margin and the background colour. Add rounded corners if you like.
- Click a photo and drag it to choose the part you want to show. Zoom for a closer crop.
- Download the image, or save it to your photos on a phone.
When two photos side by side work well
- Comparing two products, two colours or two versions of a design.
- Then and now, or before and after. The before and after maker adds labels for that.
- A portrait next to a detail shot, such as a face and the jewellery it wears.
Format and size
The tool starts with a square (1:1), which keeps both photos at a tall, balanced shape. Switch to 4:5 for more height in the feed, or to 9:16 for Stories and Reels. The export is 1080 px wide, or 2160 px if you pick the larger size.
What happens to your photos?
Nothing leaves your device. Your browser reads, arranges and exports the photos itself, so there is no upload and no server involved.
FAQ
Can I put more than two photos next to each other?
Yes. Choose the layout with three photos side by side, or use the collage maker for four or six photos.
Is it free?
Yes. There is no signup, no watermark and no limit on how often you use it.
Do the photos have to be the same size?
No. Every photo fills its cell, and you move and zoom it to choose the crop.
