How to Merge 2 Photos Side by Side (Horizontal)
Horizontal merge is the most popular. Both shots sit left and right. Use for:
- "Before and after" — fitness, renovation, hairstyle
- Two views of one place — summer and winter, day and night
- Pair portraits
Steps:
- Open collage-online.com
- Tap a cell — upload the first photo
- Tap the second cell — upload the second photo
- On "Layout", choose 2×1
- Adjust photos inside cells if needed
- Export → JPG

How to Merge Photos Top and Bottom (Vertical)
For vertical merge — 1×2 grid. First shot on top, second below. Good for:
- Vertical photos: full-length portraits, buildings, trees
- Long page screenshots
- Sequential frames of one scene
Steps:
- Open the editor
- Upload two photos into cells
- On "Layout", choose 1×2
- Crop each shot — drag to position
- Export → JPG or PNG
How to Merge Several Photos in a Grid
More than two shots? Pick a grid by count:
| Photos | Grid | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 4 | 2×2 | Four shots in a square |
| 6 | 2×3 | Two rows of three |
| 6 | 3×2 | Three rows of two |
| 9 | 3×3 | Three by three |
Each photo crops separately — move and scale inside the cell. Undo/Redo — Ctrl+Z / Ctrl+Y.
For big sets — party, trip, holiday — 3×3 works well. Nine cells cover the whole event.
Add a Frame Between Merged Photos
After choosing a grid, open "Frames". A frame visually separates shots — especially when colors are similar.
Neutral separators:
- White Classic — thin white, universal
- Silver Classic — silver, suits monochrome shots
- Black Modern — bold contrast
For photos only — leave "No Frame".
Merge Photos into PDF
To email merged photos or save for print — download PDF. On Export choose PDF instead of JPG.
PDF is good for:
- Email — opens on any device
- Print — keeps original resolution
- Archive — reliable long-term storage

Tips for a Neat Result
Pick similar shots. Different lighting or color temperature side by side looks uneven. Use one series or similar conditions.
Align the horizon. If shots have horizons or straight lines — match them in neighboring cells. Crop inside cells to align.
Use one orientation. Horizontal and vertical in one grid often clash. Recrop before upload or use one orientation.
