Photo Mockups are great for showcasing your work in a creative way. They're easy to create and customize, so you can show off your skills without spending hours creating graphics.

The First Step is to Choose a Theme

Before you delve too deep into Photo Mockups, choose a theme. You can imagine how you want to represent your project or brand and then choose mockups that match that. Hint: choose a theme that looks professional and realistic so you can get that job, more clients, or win that design award you're hoping for!

There are hundreds of free templates available online, but we recommend using one of our premium templates because they're designed specifically for professional designers. Many sites offer cheap, digitally rendered mockups, or free mockups that get used too often. We keep our mockups up-to-date, professionally created, and perfect for your design project!

Pro Tip: Vary Mockup Sizes

If you're looking for more than just a simple square or rectangle, try varying the size of your images. This will help you stand out from other brands and give your project a unique feel. Plus, different people look at projects on different screens—landscape mockups look best on desktop computers while portrait mockups look better on mobile devices.
