Polaroid Collage Guide
Polaroid Collage arranges up to ten photographs on one canvas. Plan the order and relative importance of the pictures first, then use layout, rotation, and captions to connect them into a small visual story.
Photos to finished collage
Settings used: Three photographs arranged in a neat grid on a landscape canvas, with white frames and captions.
Examples use resized images. Fine detail can vary with your source resolution.

Get a better result
Use a consistent caption style and leave some background visible. Filling every gap can make the arrangement harder to scan, especially on a phone.
Troubleshooting
If a subject is clipped, adjust that photo’s crop rather than moving the entire canvas. Small source images can look soft when enlarged. The chosen background color is included in the collage export.
