HOW TO ADD YOUR PHOTO TO A TILTED MOCKUP
Sometimes the best mockups aren’t straightforward – literally. If the screen for your mockup is a perfect square, it could not be easier to add your own image. But if the screen is an irregular shape because it’s on an angle or tilted in some way, the process gets a whole lot harder – especially if you’re not a Photoshop user.
WELL, I’M HERE TO HELP.
I’m going to show you an incredibly easy and fast way to add your image to a tilted mockup, no Photoshop required.
If you can’t or don’t want to watch a video, you can find written instructions with GIFs to guide you through just below this. Scroll down to see.

GOOD IMAGES ARE EVERYTHING.
The average business needs a minimum of 32+ high quality images every month - to post on Instagram, Stories, Pinterest, your blog, and every other platform we're juggling. Make sure you always have something to post - get free, eye-catching photos for your business.
1. Go to https://pixlr.com/e and open the photo with the screen you’d like to change.
2. From the top bar, select LAYER, then ADD IMAGE AS LAYER. Add the image you want in your mockup screen.
3. Resize your image to fit over the screen as best as possible. Then select EDIT, and FREE DISTORT. Start moving the corners of your screen image to line up with the corners of your mockup screen! As you move these the, image will tilt accordingly! When you’ve lined it up perfectly, click anywhere on the screen. A pop up will appear asking if you want to save your changes. Select YES. You’re done! Save your image to your computer and you’re ready to use it.

Thank you for sharing this! It is especially useful for people who are just starting out and don’t have a lot of experience with this type of stuff.
For sure! I always try to consider beginners + people with limited skills/resources in everything I do! Just because you don’t have the time, skill, or budget for Photoshop doesn’t mean you shouldn’t be able to start a beautiful business 🧡
How cool, I will have to try this out! I had no clue how to do this.
Yay! I’m so happy it’s a new trick you can use 🧡
Thank you so much to this helpful post! I am currently brushing up on my Photoshop skills and I’d love to try this out for practice.

Very clear and useful it often happens for some campaign photos to need to do it. thanks.
Yes, sometimes you get those angled mockups and this is a great fix! Even if you already use Photoshop, this is super fast and easy 🧡 Thanks for reading xx
I’ve always just used the GBS mockups that were a perfect square – because I don’t use Photoshop. I didn’t know that I could add an image to an angled mockup without it! This tutorial really helps, thanks!
Yay, I’m so glad! So many more opportunities just opened up for you. I shoot so many angled mockups because I feel like they look a bit less “staged” and “stock-y”. I’m really glad you’ll be able to add your photos to these tilted mockups now 🧡
A very useful post and one I will bookmark for future reference.
I’m so glad! Thanks for reading 🧡

Thank you! If you use styled stock photos anywhere in your business, this trick is a must! Glad you enjoyed 🧡
Very good basic photo layout information. I always wondered how people actually put images into those computer/phone stock images and now I see!
Yes, definitely an important trick for mockups! 🧡
