Photo Montage How To

Uploaded: May 11, 2020 | Entered: May 11, 2020 00:00:00

Description

It's easy to make a montage in Photoshop...

(1) Open photo you'd like to have in the lower rt. corner of montage. This will be the anchor photo, meaning it can't be moved. Next, go to Image - Canvas Size. (2) When the Canvas Size box opens click lower rt arrow in grid. Also, increase width and height (for 4 photos double each). Click OK and then use Zoom Tool to fit montage canvas to screen. (3) Open next photo you want to add to your montage. Do Select All and then Copy. Paste into file containing anchor photo. Photo will appear as a new layer. Click on that layer and use Move Tool to move photo to desired location. (4) Repeat Step 3 with remaining photos. (5) When finished go to Layer - Flatten Image and then Save As.
