Expand the canvas around an image to add breathing room, a solid background, or a clean border — without distorting the photo itself. It's ideal for padding a product shot to a square, adding margins for printing, or framing artwork on a colour of your choice. Runs fully in your browser.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I add a white border around my photo?
Increase the canvas size beyond your image and set the background to white. The extra space appears as an even border around the original picture, which you can then download.
How do I make a photo square by adding background instead of cropping?
Expand the shorter side of the canvas until width and height match, and fill the new area with a background colour. Your whole image stays visible, centred inside a square frame.
Can I choose the background colour of the new canvas area?
Yes. Pick any colour for the surrounding canvas, from white or black to a custom brand colour, so the added space matches the look you want.
Why would I expand the canvas before printing?
Printers often trim the edges, so adding a margin of canvas around your image keeps important content away from the cut line and gives a clean border on the final print.
Does expanding the canvas reduce image quality?
No. Your original image keeps its exact pixels; the tool simply adds extra space around it. The export is as sharp as the source, with the new area filled by your chosen background.
