Written by Steve Patterson. In this
Photoshop Effects tutorial,
we’ll learn how to take a single photograph and turn it into a collage
of polaroids, with each polaroid containing a small section of the
overall image.
You can use this effect with lots of different types of images,
whether it’s a photo of one person or several people. It’s great for
photos of family or friends, vacation photos, or even as a creative
effect for wedding photography. This is a very easy photo collage effect
to create, and as we’ll see later in the tutorial, much of the work is
simply repeating the same few steps over and over again until you’re
happy with the results.
This version of the tutorial is for Photoshop CS5 and earlier.
Photoshop CS6 and CC (Creative Cloud) users will want to follow along
