Built for school photographers

Design class composites in minutes — perfectly sized for print, beautifully consistent every time.

Drop in headshots, pick a background, choose rows/columns, sort from CSV (grade, teacher, last, first), and export exact-pixel PNGs for 10×8, 8×10, 15×12, or 20×16 at 300 DPI. Everything runs in the browser — your images never leave your computer.

Why studios choose Automated Composite Builder

Purpose-built for school composites, tuned for speed, accuracy, and print-perfect output.

Instant layouts

Set rows/columns or let auto-layout maximize tile size. Gutter and margins give you precise control, and the grid respects the center-band title when used.

CSV-driven naming & sort

Map First, Last, Grade, Teacher, and optional Filename. Sort by up to three fields — e.g. Grade → Last → First — or preserve CSV row order.

Drag, drop, delete

Drag thumbnails to fine-tune order and remove individual images with a hover “×”. No more re-uploads just to edit a row.

Titles that fit your style

1–3 line titles (School, Grade, Year) at the top or in a center band. Add a school logo (left/center/right) and an optional © studio credit at the bottom.

Built-in backgrounds

Ten classic textured looks — plus a quick option to upload a custom backdrop when you need it.

Print-perfect exports

Exact pixel output for 10×8, 8×10, 15×12, and 20×16 at 300 DPI. What you see on canvas is what you deliver.

Results your schools will love

A few samples created with the builder.

How it works

1 Upload headshots (drag-and-drop). The builder center-crops to 4×5 automatically.
2 Load a CSV (optional) with first/last/grade/teacher/filename to attach names and sort logic.
3 Choose layout, background, title style, and (optionally) school logo & studio credit.
4 Drag to fine-tune order, or remove any image with a hover “×”.
5 Generate & export exact-pixel PNGs ready for print or yearbook submission.
