Instagram Carousel Templates, Reframed for Photos
Pasteup does not offer a preset template library. It generates a complete three-slide layout from your own photos, so you start with an editable composition instead of fitting images into fixed placeholders.
Choose up to 6 photosFree · No sign-up · Private unless you share
Choose a structure before you choose a style.
These repeatable structures help you select the right photos. Pasteup then determines the actual crop, scale, position, and overlap for the set you upload.
Beginning, middle, end
Use an establishing image, active moments, and a closing frame to shape a short story.
Product in context
Pair clear product views with lifestyle photography and the setting around them.
Event recap
Combine venue, people, action, and detail shots without forcing every image to equal size.
Before and after
Keep the comparison visually clear, then use the middle slide to show context or process.
Photo essay
Build rhythm with wide, medium, and close images instead of repeating one crop.
How it works
From photos to three finished slides.
Pick a story structure
Decide what the first slide promises and what the final slide resolves.
Choose one to six photos
Select images with different roles rather than six near-duplicates.
Generate the layout
Pasteup builds a photo-specific composition across all three panels.
Adjust and export
Refine the generated result, then download the numbered images.
When a generated layout fits—and when it does not.
Pasteup is for photo-led carousels. It is not a library of branded, text-heavy, or reusable slide templates.
Use Pasteup for
Connected photography, campaign selects, travel stories, product shoots, and visual recaps.
Use a template editor for
Repeated brand systems, charts, long educational copy, or precise text-first slide decks.
Add text selectively
Pasteup supports manual text layers when a photo needs a short label or title.
