Sign your name before you share.
Drop a photo, type your handle or pick your logo file, then choose a corner — or tile the mark diagonally across the whole frame when the point is to stop someone reusing the file. Four fonts, free rotation, custom colour and opacity. Nothing uploads. For batch watermarks, grab a proper app.

Six places attribution actually matters
- 01 for photographers
A signature in the corner before the upload
Photographer sharing on Instagram or a portfolio site, but tired of seeing your work re-shared without credit? Drop the photo, type your handle, pick bottom-right at 45% opacity, white. Quietly visible; doesn't fight the photo. Hard for someone to crop without ruining the frame.
- 02 for previews
A diagonal tile for a portfolio preview
Share-but-protect: clients reviewing draft work shouldn't be able to take the file and run. Diagonal tile mode at 30% opacity with your studio name across every inch — they can review, they can't ship without paying. Standard agency move.
- 03 for stock
A free-trial preview of a stock photo
Selling stock images? The preview-with-watermark workflow is the convention: tile your URL or shop name diagonally so previewers can see the photo, can't use it. Free downloads of the watermarked version drive paid downloads of the clean one.
- 04 for ig
A handle stamp for sharing across platforms
If a photo lives on multiple platforms, the watermark is the only constant breadcrumb back to your account. Stamp the IG handle in the corner before posting; if it gets reshared on Tumblr or Pinterest, the link still works.
- 05 for handouts
A studio name on a workshop hand-out
Print-and-distribute teaching materials want subtle attribution. Centered serif watermark at 25% opacity reads as 'this is from somewhere specific' without dominating the slide. Same handout circulates wider; people remember where to find more.
- 06 for resale
A 'sold by' note on a marketplace listing photo
Sketchy buyers screenshot Marketplace photos to use in their own scams. A watermark in the corner with your handle makes the screenshot useless — anyone seeing it knows where the original lives. Doesn't bother legitimate buyers.
Frequently asked
Does the photo upload anywhere? +
No. Watermark text is rendered to a canvas in your browser. Your photo never touches our servers — we don't run an image pipeline at all.
Tile or corner — which is better? +
Corner is for attribution: the photo comes through clean, your name is a quiet signature. Tile is for protection — the mark runs across every part of the frame on the diagonal, with alternate rows offset so there's no straight column to crop along. Use corner for finished work, tile for anything going out for review. Tile spacing is measured in multiples of the mark's own width, so the density holds on any size of file.
Can the watermark be removed? +
A determined attacker with enough time and the right tools can probably remove a corner watermark. Diagonal tiles at 30%+ opacity covering the whole image are much harder to clean. For high-stakes protection, use tile mode or don't share online at all.
What font should I pick? +
Inter for clean modern attribution. Instrument Serif for editorial/print contexts. Caveat for a personal/handwritten feel (good for portfolios). Mono for that 'photo agency contact sheet' aesthetic — '© NAME' in monospace looks period-correct for documentary-style work.
How big should the watermark be? +
Corner watermarks: 3-5% of the photo's width is usually enough. Tile watermarks: 2-3% — smaller than a corner mark, but repeated across the whole frame. Size is a percentage, not a pixel count, so the same setting reads the same on a web JPEG and on a full-resolution export.
Can I add a logo image instead of text? +
Yes — switch to Your logo and pick a file. A PNG with a transparent background sits on the photo cleanly; run one through Background Remover first if yours has a white box around it. The logo works in every position including diagonal tile, and it stays on your device exactly like the photo does.
