Online Photo Shadow Effect
Add a Soft Drop Shadow to Your Photo
Frame your image with a clean border and a soft shadow that gives it depth
- Place a solid border and soft drop shadow around the entire photo.
- Choose from presets for white cards, dark frames, warm paper, cool colors, and rounded styles.
- Adjust the border width, shadow size, opacity, offset, angle, corner roundness, and colors.
Use a light drop shadow to make a photo appear raised from the background. The effect works well for product images, portfolio pieces, blog graphics, cards, portraits, and other layouts that need separation without a decorative frame texture.
Start with a preset or build your own combination of border and shadow colors. A low opacity and short offset create a restrained editorial look, while a larger, darker shadow makes the image feel more like a floating card.
