Pages with room for your story
Shape a single page or a whole story, one detail at a time.
Build pages and two-page spreads, start from a template, and arrange photos and words with care. Crop and reframe images, choose decorative, geometric or organic frames, and use borders and filters to set the mood. Fonts, reusable text styles, curved text, guides and distribution tools help you give every part of the memory a considered place.
A memory of any length
Give the story as many pages as it needs
A single moment, a sequence of pages, or a two-page spread.
Start with one photo and a few words, or build a longer story page by page. Add, duplicate, rename and reorder pages, then find your place through the thumbnail ladder. Work on single pages or two-page spreads, with one shared background or different backgrounds on each side. Templates give you a finished layout to build on; photo framing, text styles and precision tools help make the details your own. Choose digital, print or book sizes, set custom dimensions, and use Magic Resize when the memory needs another format. The pages can later become a book, a print or a shared image — you begin by designing the memory.
The tools in this part of Designer
Memories of any length
From a single page to a whole story, ready to become a book when you want one.
Add, duplicate, reorder and rename pages, then move through the story with a thumbnail ladder. Design one page at a time or work on two-page spreads, with a shared background or a different one on each side. Choose digital, print or book sizes, set your own dimensions, and use Magic Resize to adapt the design to a new format. Books and prints can be an outcome; the memory is where you start.
Templates to start strong
Start from a finished layout and make it yours.
Browse and preview templates for single pages and spreads in editorial, portrait, journal, cover, minimal and scrapbook styles, then apply the layout you like. Designer asks before replacing a page that already has content; applying a template replaces that content rather than rearranging your existing photos into the new layout. Save your own designs as private templates and reuse them in other projects. Pages with Local-tab photos need those photos uploaded before they can be saved as templates.
Photo framing
Place every photo exactly how you want it.
Crop and reframe a photo inside its frame, or move the picture without moving the frame itself. Clip images into shapes and frame presets in decorative, geometric and organic styles, then add borders and filters to give each photo its mood. Fill a background with a photo, a solid color or a gradient, and bring the focus back to the people and details that make the memory yours.
Typography and precision
Text and layouts that look professionally set.
Browse and search fonts, return to recent choices, and save reusable text styles. Load your own font files for use in your browser; those files are not uploaded or shared with collaborators. Shape text with outlines, boxes, curved paths and right-to-left direction. Smart snapping, distance guides, a grid and distribution tools help keep the layout aligned, and you choose which helpers are on.
Build with 16 shape types, and browse a separate shape library by name, tag or category. Use layers to order, hide and lock elements, and group related pieces to arrange them together.
Bring your next memory to the canvas
Start with a page or a template, invite the people who were there, and shape the photos and stories together. When you are happy with the design, export the file from the editor.
