How it works
Three steps from start to finish.
Tune opacity, size and position
Dial opacity down so it doesn't overpower the photo, choose a corner or repeating placement, and set a size relative to the image.
Export and reuse the same settings
Apply the same watermark to a whole batch in one pass so every export carries consistent, recognizable branding.
Use cases
Where this tool earns its keep.
Sharing portfolio samples publicly
Post work-in-progress or low-res previews online with a visible mark that discourages uncredited reuse.
Sending client proofs before final delivery
Mark draft versions clearly as proofs so there's no ambiguity about what's the final, unwatermarked deliverable.
Branding a consistent set of images
Stamp the same studio or handle across an entire shoot or project for recognizable, cohesive branding.
Marking preview or sample assets
Label demo screenshots, sample exports or template previews as 'preview' before they're shared more broadly.
Tips
Get the most out of it.
Low opacity (40-60%)
Visible enough to discourage theft, subtle enough not to ruin the photo.
Bottom-right corner
The least visually distracting placement for portfolios.
Same string across photos
Run it as a bulk job for consistent branding.
Common mistakes
Avoid these before you export.
Setting opacity too high or too low
A heavy watermark distracts from the photo itself; a near-invisible one does nothing to discourage reuse. Roughly 40–60% opacity is the usual sweet spot.
Placing the mark over the main subject
A watermark across a face or focal point ruins the image for its intended viewing purpose. Corners or edges protect the work while keeping it presentable.
Using different text or styling per image
Inconsistent marks look unprofessional and dilute brand recognition across a set. Lock in one string and style, then apply it as a batch.
FAQ
Questions people ask about this tool.
Can someone remove a text watermark?
A determined person with editing tools can attempt it, especially on plain backgrounds — no watermark is fully tamper-proof. Its main value is discouraging casual reuse and asserting visible attribution, not technical protection.
Should I use a text watermark or a logo image?
A text watermark is faster to set up and easy to keep consistent across many images. A logo image gives more visual control but typically needs a dedicated image-overlay workflow.
Can I watermark a whole folder at once?
Yes — set your text, opacity, size and position once, then run it across a multi-file selection so every export carries the same mark.
