Make side by side comparison photos — an edit, a renovation, a treatment, a repair — where both halves show exactly the same region, labelled Before and After.

Linked crop is on: drag inside either half, or zoom, and both follow, so the same part of each photo is compared.

What a linked crop does that a plain side-by-side cannot

Put two differently framed photos side by side and the eye compares two different crops. Here both halves share one zoom and one focus point, so they show the same part of each picture — the thing a before-and-after needs. The two cells are identical in size, each photo fills its cell, and a divider and labels make the comparison explicit.

How to do it

  1. Add the before, then the afterSwap them by dragging tiles in the tray.
  2. Zoom to the detailThe zoom and the drag apply to both halves.
  3. Label and divideEdit the labels; set the divider width and colour.
  4. ExportChoose a size, or a preset such as Portrait 4:5.

Where it stops

There is no animated wipe or slider export; the result is one still image. Alignment between the two shots is not done on this page.

Questions people ask

Why link the crop?

A comparison is only fair when both halves show the same region at the same scale. With the crop linked, moving or zooming one half moves the other identically, so a detail on the left is the same detail on the right.

My two photos were handheld and do not line up exactly. What can I do?

Linked crop keeps the framing the same, but it does not move one photo relative to the other. For two shots taken from slightly different positions, line them up first with Auto-align on the overlay page, or turn Linked crop off and place each half by hand.

Side by side or one above the other?

Side by side reads well on a computer; one above the other is better on phones and for stories. Change it under Comparison.

Can I change the labels?

Yes — type them under Comparison. Turn Captions off to remove them.

Is the divider part of the file?

Yes. It is drawn on the seam at the width and colour you set, in the preview and in the export alike.

Are the photos uploaded?

No. Both are combined in this browser tab.
