You just shot a wedding. Somewhere between 200 and 2000 images are sitting on your drive, culled and edited, ready to go out. Now you need to deliver them in three different places at three different

Instagram carousels are one of the highest-performing content formats on the platform. They get more saves, more swipes, and more reach than single images. But most creators are exporting them wrong,
Here's the problem nobody talks about with batch cropping tools.
You upload 40 photos. You set a crop size. The tool applies it to every image identically, dead center, every time. You download the ZIP, open it, and half your photos have the wrong thing in frame. The subject is cut off on one side. The horizon is gone. The product is clipped.
So you end up cropping them one by one anyway.
This happens because almost every batch crop tool online works the same way: one crop setting, applied uniformly across all images. It's fast if every photo has the subject perfectly centered. In the real world, they don't.
There's a better approach.
Uniform cropping makes one assumption: that the important part of every image is in the same place.
For some workflows that's true. If you're cropping a set of product photos taken on a controlled white background with consistent framing, uniform crop works fine.
But for most photographers, content creators, and e-commerce sellers, photos vary. Different compositions, different orientations, different subjects at different positions in the frame. Applying one crop to all of them doesn't save time. It creates cleanup work.
The alternative most people reach for is Photoshop's batch actions. It's more flexible, but it requires setup time, a subscription, and it still can't position the crop differently per image without manual intervention.
The approach that solves this is straightforward. You move through your images one by one, setting the crop position on each, and then export everything together at the end.
It combines the speed of batch export with the precision of individual editing. You're not cropping one image at a time and saving each separately. You're reviewing and positioning each crop in a single session, then downloading everything as a ZIP when you're done.
In practice, once you're in a rhythm, it takes about 2-3 seconds per image to position the crop box. For a batch of 30 photos, that's under two minutes of actual work before you hit export.
This is how MintyCrop works. You choose a platform format such as IG Feed (1080x1350), Pinterest (1000x1500), or Facebook (1200x1200), position and rotate the crop on each photo, and export everything in one action.
Photographers delivering client galleries
Portrait and event photographers often need to deliver a set of images in a consistent size, but every photo has a different composition. Batch cropping with per-image control lets you finalize all of them in one session without the repetition of opening and saving each file individually.
E-commerce sellers with varied product shots
If you're listing products on Etsy, Shopify, or Amazon, your images need consistent dimensions but your subjects aren't always centered. A ring shot might be in the top-left of the frame. A necklace draped differently. Uniform crop ruins half the images. Per-image positioning fixes all of them.
Social media managers handling batches of client content
Cropping a week's worth of posts to platform-specific dimensions, where every image is different, is exactly the workflow this approach is built for.
Real estate photographers
Room compositions are never identical. Getting the right framing on each shot, without cutting off a doorway or a window, requires per-image control.
Go to mintycrop.com and drag in your files. JPG, PNG, WebP, and HEIC are all supported. HEIC files from iPhone are automatically converted in the browser on import, no manual conversion needed.
Pick from platform presets: IG Square (1080x1080), IG Feed (1080x1350), IG Story (1080x1920), Facebook (1200x1200), and Pinterest (1000x1500). Pro users can define custom pixel dimensions.
Step through your photos. On each image, drag the crop box to where it should sit and rotate if needed. The subject is in the corner? Move it there. The horizon is off? Straighten it. Takes seconds per image.
Choose JPG, PNG, or WebP as your output format and hit export. All your images download as a ZIP, cropped exactly as you positioned them.
Most online batch croppers, including BIRME, Fotor's batch crop, and BeFunky's bulk editor, apply a single crop to all images. Some offer smart auto-crop that tries to detect the subject automatically. Auto-crop is useful but imperfect; it guesses based on image contrast and visual weight, which doesn't always match what you actually want to keep in frame.
The tools that do offer per-image adjustment typically require you to click into each image separately, make the adjustment, and save, which is not much faster than editing them one by one.
MintyCrop keeps you in a single continuous flow. No clicking in and out of separate edit screens. No saving files individually. One session, one export.
Beyond per-image batch cropping, MintyCrop has two features worth knowing about.
Unified carousel cropping (Pro) treats an Instagram or Facebook carousel as one wide image. You crop once, choose 2-4 slides, and MintyCrop splits them with mathematically equal divisions. This is the only reliable way to produce carousels where visual elements flow cleanly from slide to slide without misalignment.
Grid Cutter (Pro) splits images into grids up to 10x10 tiles for Instagram puzzle-style posts, automatically and consistently across your entire batch.
MintyCrop runs entirely in your browser. Your images are processed locally using your device's own computing power and nothing is sent to any server at any point. For photographers working with client photos or unpublished commercial images, that's not a minor detail.
Can I set a different crop position for every single image?
Yes. Each image gets its own crop position. You're not locked into uniform positioning.
What file formats does MintyCrop support?
It accepts JPG, PNG, WebP, and HEIC uploads. HEIC files are automatically converted in the browser on import and export as JPG, PNG, or WebP.
Is it free?
The free plan allows up to 30 export actions per month. Pro unlocks unlimited exports, custom pixel sizes, carousel cropping, and Grid Cutter.
Does it work on mobile?
Yes. MintyCrop works in the browser on desktop and mobile, including touch interactions for cropping and rotation.
If you've got a folder of photos that all need cropping but not in the same place, visit mintycrop.com. Upload your batch, position each crop, export once.
No software. No uploads to a server. No cropping the same thing twice.
