Add Watermark to Photo: Free Watermark Maker
Type your name, handle or website and place it on the photo. A watermark tells people who made the picture and makes it harder to reuse without credit. You see every change on the image before you download.
Drag and drop your image
or click to choose a file. JPG, PNG, WEBP, GIF and BMP are supported.
Your image stays on your device. Nothing is uploaded.
How to add a watermark to a photo
- 1Upload your photo. The watermark panel opens with a sample mark.
- 2Type your text and set the size, opacity, color and position.
- 3Download the watermarked photo as JPG or PNG.
Corner or centre?
A small mark in a corner looks tidy but can be cropped away. A large, faint mark across the centre is much harder to remove. Proof images sent to clients usually use the centre.
Keep it readable but quiet
An opacity of 30 to 60 percent is a good range. White text suits dark photos and dark text suits light ones.
What to write
A copyright line such as © Your Name, a social handle or a web address all work. Short text stays legible at small sizes.
