Batch crop images to one shape

Drop a set of photos into the box above and every one of them comes back with the same proportions. The cropper cuts each picture to the largest area that fits the shape you choose, so nothing is stretched and no white bars are added. You pick the shape once, and it applies to the whole batch, whether that is five product shots or a folder of holiday pictures.

Choose a shape for the whole batch

The shape is a ratio of width to height, so it works the same for a small phone photo and a large camera file.

• Square · 1:1 suits profile pictures, product grids and thumbnails that sit side by side.
• Portrait · 4:5, 3:4 and 2:3 are taller than wide. A 4:5 crop fills more of a phone screen than a square, and 2:3 is the shape of a classic 4 × 6 inch print.
• Landscape · 3:2 and 4:3 are wider than tall. Many cameras shoot 3:2 and most phones shoot 4:3, so these trim the least from ordinary pictures.
• Widescreen · 16:9 fits slides, video thumbnails and wallpapers for wide screens.
• Vertical · 9:16 is the full-screen shape of a phone held upright.

Choose No crop to go back to the original proportions; the other settings keep working.

Keep the part that matters

Every photo in the batch can be a different shape, so the cropper decides for each one what has to go. When a photo is wider than your shape, it loses the same amount from both sides, which keeps a centered subject centered. When it is taller, the From tall photos, keep setting decides: the middle, the top or the bottom.

The top is usually right for portraits and group photos, where heads sit high in the frame. The bottom suits objects standing on a table or the floor, and the middle works for most other pictures. Check the thumbnails after cropping: if a subject sits off-center, a batch crop can cut into it, and that photo is better cropped by hand.

Get an exact pixel size

Cropping sets the shape; resizing sets the size. Under Resize by, choose Width and type the width you need, and the height follows from the shape:

Photos that are smaller than the width you set keep their size unless you turn on Allow enlarging smaller images. Enlarging creates more pixels from the ones already there, so it cannot add detail. Very large results are reduced to fit this browser's memory, and the row says so when that happens. The image resizer explains the other resize modes.

Pick the output format

This page starts with JPG at 92% quality, which keeps photos small and sharp. Switch to PNG for lossless files, or to WebP for smaller files; both keep transparent areas. JPG has no transparency, so any transparent parts turn white or black. For JPG and WebP you can also set Aim for at most (KB) to keep each file under a size limit, and the image compressor covers that in detail.

Download the batch

Each row shows the original size, the cropped size and the file size before and after. Preview opens the saved result for a closer look, and Download saves one image. With two or more images in the list, the ZIP button saves every finished image in one file, named after the originals.

Everything runs in your browser: the photos are never uploaded. To remove the backgrounds from a set of photos as well, use the bulk background remover, which can frame them as squares with a white background.
