Image Grids in Photoshop

After looking at Michael Wolf’s Series My Favourite Things, and Gerhard Richter’s Atlas, I wanted to explore displaying photos in grids using Photoshop to display my work for exercise 3.2 Series.

As usual with Photoshop there is always more than one approach, but to start I used How to Make A Grid Collage In Photoshop.

The brief notes below are a reminder for future work

  1. Create a new document
  2. Create vertical and horizontal guides (turn snap to guides on)
  3. Open the images to be used and copy one at a time to the main document
  4. Adjust the image using transform
  5. Select the image and duplicate the layer (control+J). Delete the original layer.
  6. Add layer style stroke (10px, position inside, colour white)
  7. Repeat for all images
  8. Enlarge canvas size Width 10px, Height 10px, click the Relative checkbox, Select centre for the Anchor
  9. Save document
