Put Two Photos Side by Side

Two photos in one frame answers a question a single photo cannot: what changed, which one is better, how the two compare. This maker puts the pair on one page at a shared height, so neither picture looks bigger than the other and the eye reads them together. Run them across the page in landscape, or stack the two frames in portrait for a phone screen or a narrow print. Before and After labels can be switched on when the order matters, and the finished pair downloads as one image.

Put two photos side by side in 3 steps

Choose the two photos

Pick the pair you want compared. One file each, from a phone or a computer; the two do not have to share a shape, because each frame takes the photo's own proportions and the pair is balanced by height rather than by cropping both to the same rectangle.

Pick landscape or portrait

Landscape runs the two frames across the page, which is the shape most screens and printed sheets want. Portrait stacks them one above the other, which keeps each photo large on a phone. The gap between them stays the same in both directions.

Download the pair

Save one image with both photos in it, ready to post, print or send. The file keeps the proportions you chose, so the pair does not arrive squashed or letterboxed at the other end.

Two arrangements, one label that explains itself

The arrangement decides how the two photos share the page; the label decides whether a stranger can tell which is which.

Across the page in landscape

Two frames beside each other at one height, with an even gap between them. Good for a wide screen, a slide, a listing image or anything that will be read left to right.

Stacked in portrait

The same two photos one above the other. On a phone this keeps both frames wide enough to see, where a landscape pair would shrink each photo to half the screen.

Before and After labels

Small captions on each frame, switched on when the comparison is not obvious. They can be turned off for a cleaner image, and the pair still reads as a pair without them.

Why use this pair maker

The details that make two photos look like one deliberate image.

Equal heights

The two frames are matched, so a tall photo does not tower over a wide one and the pair stays balanced on the page.

Labels when you need them

Before and After captions are optional. On for a comparison, off when the photos speak for themselves.

No upload

Both photos are opened in the tab and the pair is drawn on your device. Nothing is sent, so there is nothing to clean up afterwards.

Fits a phone screen

Portrait mode keeps each photo at a readable size on a narrow screen, with no pinch and zoom to compare them.

Where a two-photo pair works

Anywhere the point is the difference between two shots.

Renovation before and after

The same corner of a room, photographed twice, reads in one glance instead of two files the viewer has to flick between.

Two angles of one product

Front and back, closed and open, flat and standing: a pair shows a product faster than a single photo can.

Two portraits, one frame

Two people, or one person in two lights. The shared height keeps them on equal footing.

Progress over time

Week one next to week twelve. The pair is small enough to send and clear enough to see the change without a chart.

Side by side FAQ

Is the side-by-side maker free?

Yes. Every template is free, batch upload goes up to 50 photos, and you get 1 clean export a day; after that, exports carry a small corner mark and the PDF is capped at 150dpi. Both arrangements and the Before and After labels are part of it.

What is the difference between landscape and portrait here?

Landscape puts the two frames across the page with a gap between them. Portrait stacks the two frames one above the other. The photos are the same in both; only the direction the pair grows changes.

Can I add Before and After labels?

Yes. The labels are a switch rather than a separate template, so you can turn them on to explain the order and off again for a cleaner image. They sit on the frames rather than in a caption bar under the pair.

Will both photos be the same size?

They share a height, not a width. A wide photo and a tall photo end up equally tall and each keeps its own proportions, which is what stops the pair from looking stretched.

Can I do this on a phone?

The page runs in a phone browser, and portrait mode is there for exactly that case: two frames stacked so each one stays large enough to read on a narrow screen.

What file do I get?

One image containing both photos, at the proportions you chose. It can be posted, printed or sent as a single file, which is the point of pairing them rather than attaching two pictures.
