TL;DR:
You can create photo collages accompanied by music using video editors or timeline-equipped graphic design platforms like Wondershare Filmora V11, Canva, Express It, and Kapwing.
● Wondershare Filmora is a professional desktop editor requiring Windows 7 (64-bit) or macOS 10.12 and later, whereas options like Express It, Smilebox, Fotojet, Vimeo, Kapwing, and VEED.IO operate primarily as online web tools or mobile apps requiring account registration.
● For specific use cases, Smilebox provides an automated tool for fast creation, Express It features a highly customizable free-style mode, and Kapwing allows the integration of still photos, video clips, and GIFs within the same layout.
● Despite being marketed as free, these platforms operate on a freemium model where users can try the basic tools, but advanced editing features, premium stock media libraries, and collaborative functions require a paid upgrade.

8 Free Photo Collage with Music Video Maker
An easy yet powerful editor
Numerous effects to choose from
Detailed tutorials provided by the official channel
It is definitely possible Usually, people use video collage makers for this reason. But you can also create an actual photo collage with music as well (no need to use actual video clips if you don’t want to.)
In the end, it all depends on the collage maker you’re using to be completely honest. In this case, the collage maker in question would have to have video editing functionalities advanced enough to allow you to create a video consisting of a picture collage with music Learn more about the different tools that you can check out below as we break down some of the best of the best available
01 Wondershare Filmora Video Editor
The first of the video makers that we’re going to be introducing is called Filmora. This is a professional editor that’s equipped with just about everything you need for creating high-quality video content. That includes the things that you will need in order to create a music photo collage
For your reference, that means that you can use it to create a video showing off a picture collage with music. Usually by making use of the templates provided by the software and uploading your own images (although, in the newest version of Filmora, Filmora V11, there is a ‘Stock Media’ option that includes an endless supply of photographs, videos, music, etc. for adding to your content.)
For Win 7 or later (64-bit)
For macOS 10.12 or later
02 Canva
Canva is really more of a photo editor than anything else. But it has a timeline function that you can use for more advanced things. Which, in this case, would be creating a picture collage with music
Note, just like with Filmora, Canva is not an entirely FREE program. But it is free to try. And, just like Filmora, it comes with a stock media library that you can use as a resource for your projects (i.e., images, clip arts, etc.) Canva also comes with a Pro version that you can unlock if you want some of its more advanced features (highly recommended if you’re looking to create content for work or entrepreneurial reasons and not just for posting on social media. Especially since it will allow you to collaborate with others.)
03 Express It
You can say that "Express It" is Adobe’s version of Canva. It is available as an online tool and as a photo collage with music app that you can use for your smartphone or tablet.
Much like with Canva, this program has a built-in stock media library that you can use for your projects. It’s also primarily FREE to use, although you’ll need to pay in order to unlock some of its more advanced resources. It comes with the usual layouts for creating quick templates, but it’s most prized for its ‘free-style’ mode, which will allow you to create a collage that looks exactly how you want it to look.
04 Smilebox
Smilebox is an automatic video collage maker that is capable of turning photographs into a video collage without much input from you It’s the tool to use if all you’re looking for is a quick solution. By that, we of course mean the solution of the ‘upload-and-then-download’ variety
It is also an online tool, so Sign-Up is required. But once you’re signed up, the only thing you really have to do is provide the images that you want to use for your music photo collage
05 Fotojet
Next is ‘Fotojet’, which is an online collage maker that is incredibly popular for those that are looking for an easy solution. It works pretty much how you expect a collage maker to work. You choose from a list of ‘collage layouts’, choose the images that you want to place in the layout that you’ve chosen, pick out your music, maybe decorate the pic collage a bit (for example, you can add text, clipart stickers, etc.) and then you’re done
Much like some of the programs on this list, Fotojet isn’t an entirely free music photo collage tool. However, a FREE trial is available if you want to try it out for a quick project or two.
06 Vimeo
Video is a professional online photo editing tool that’s incredibly popular with entrepreneurs. It actually works very similarly with all the other tools that we’ve introduced so far. That means that it comes with templates that you can use in order to create projects, it also comes with a ‘resources’ library that you can take advantage of in order to fill up said projects
As for creating a photo collage with music by using this tool. You will need to sign up to start creating, but it’s FREE to try — with some elements locked under the premium version.
07 Kapwing
KapWing is exactly what it looks like, it’s an online photo editor The best part about it is that it comes with quick collage layouts that you can use and the usual resources library. The layouts in question are customizable, allowing you to control what your music photo collages look like in the end. You also have the choice of creating said collage with photos, videos, GIFs, and music
08 VEED.IO
Similar to KapWing, VEED.IO offers a video collage maker that comes with customizable layouts that you can use to easily create a pic collage with music. The program is of course also free to try (though certain elements are locked in the FREE version).
