Four-Frame Photo Design Guide
Choose a four-frame layout by considering photo arrangement, spacing, colors, and captions together.
How can you use this?
Minimal frames keep attention on the photos, while pastel frames create a softer look. Place logos and captions in margins where they will not cover faces.
Three Things to Consider When Choosing a Frame
- Choose colors that complement expressions and outfits
- Leave space around faces and hand gestures
- Keep logos and text in safe areas outside the photos
For printed photos, consider actual trimming margins as well as the on-screen preview.
Practical Design Guide
Choosing Frame Colors
White and light gray are versatile choices that let photos stand out. Dark colors emphasize the frame but can make darker photos feel crowded.
Positioning Text and Logos
Dates and short captions are easier to read in the bottom margin than between photos. Split longer captions into two lines instead of making the font too small.
Safe Margins for Printing
Printers and trimming methods may crop the edges. Keep important text and faces away from cut lines and check the final print size.
