Exposure: Collage & Scrapbook
Feature

A grid builder for pixel-perfect layouts

Exposure's grid builder sets the exact number of rows and columns, lets you adjust spacing between photos independently, and drops your images into the cells automatically — no manual resizing or eyeballing alignment.

Why a grid builder beats manual alignment

Lining up a dozen photos into even rows by hand is fiddly — spacing drifts, crops don’t match, and one resize throws off the whole layout. A grid builder fixes the structure first (rows, columns, gaps) and lets photos snap into place, so the alignment is right before you’ve placed a single image.

Where grids fit into a larger layout

A grid rarely stands alone. Pair it with a Polaroid or film-strip frame around the whole block, drop in a custom sticker cut-out at a corner, or add an AI-written caption underneath — all inside the same canvas used for carousels and photo books.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What's the difference between a grid layout and a seamless carousel?
A grid arranges separate photos into fixed rows and columns — the classic collage or mosaic look. A seamless carousel splits one image across multiple pages instead. Both live in the same editor and can be combined on one canvas.
How many photos fit in one grid?
10 or more, depending on the rows and columns you choose — the same collage grids used in Exposure's template packs.
Can I mix grid and freeform layouts on the same canvas?
Yes. The grid builder gives you a starting structure; once photos are placed you can nudge, resize or add freeform elements around them.
