Sequence or spotlight — pick one

Pro Tips
How to compose a 4 photo that looks designed
Follow these visual principles for balanced colors, focal points, and storytelling.
Three-plus-one contrast
In split layouts, make the big cell your most detailed frame and the three small cells quick context reads.
Watch diagonal weight
If two dark frames sit diagonally opposite, the grid tilts visually. Rebalance tones across the diagonal.
Leave processing headroom
Four cells tolerate heavier filters than nine. Grade confidently, then verify on your phone screen.

FAQ
4 Photo Frequently Asked Questions
Is a 4-photo grid the same as a 2×2 collage?
The equal 2×2 is one option within 4-photo collages. Magazine splits like Big+2 offer a different four-photo structure with one dominant image.
Which four photos should I pick?
Apply the anchor rule: one establishing shot, two supporting details, one emotional closer. This quartet structure works for events, products, and people alike.
Can I switch my 4-photo layout after arranging?
Yes — changing templates preserves your photo assignments wherever cell counts match, so experimenting costs nothing.
What canvas suits four-photo collages?
All four presets work. Square suits social posting, landscape suits blog headers, portrait suits story-format sharing.
Are 4-photo exports free and watermark-free?
Completely — unlimited free exports in PNG or JPEG with nothing stamped on them.
