Oval Crop Image
Crop a photo into a smooth oval or ellipse directly in your browser. Choose a portrait, landscape or custom ratio, zoom and drag to frame the subject, and download a PNG with a transparent background — nothing is uploaded to a server.
Ovals are the classic portrait shape: use them for vintage-style frames, cameo avatars, wedding and memorial stationery, lockets, badges, and any layout where a circle feels too strict and a rectangle too plain.

How to Crop a Picture into an Oval
Upload your photo
Drop a JPG, PNG or WEBP into the cropper, or click to browse. Processing happens locally in your browser.
Pick the oval shape
Choose a portrait or landscape preset, or fine-tune the width : height ratio with the slider until the ellipse fits your design.
Frame the subject
Scroll or use the zoom slider to resize, then drag the photo so the face or object sits inside the oval.
Download
Save as a transparent PNG to place the oval over any background, or as a JPG with a white background.
Why Crop to an Oval Instead of a Circle?
A circle forces a square frame, which cuts off the top of the head or the shoulders on most portraits. An oval keeps the natural proportions of a face while still giving a soft, frameless edge — which is why classic painted portraits, cameos and lockets are oval.
Landscape ovals work the other way round: a wide ellipse can hold a couple or a small group in one frame without the tight crop a circle would need, making it a good fit for wedding invitations, team pages and printed keepsakes.
If you need a perfect circle for a profile picture instead, the circle preset here does exactly that — or use the dedicated Circle Crop tool on the home page and the PFP Cropper for platform-specific sizes.
常见问题
How do I crop an image into an oval shape?
Upload the image, choose an oval preset (or set a custom ratio), zoom and drag until the subject is framed, and download. The cropper clips everything outside the ellipse and exports a PNG with a transparent background.
What is the difference between an oval crop and an ellipse crop?
Nothing — an oval in everyday language is an ellipse in geometry. Both describe a rounded shape that is longer in one direction than the other. A circle is the special case where both directions are equal.
Can I make a vertical (portrait) oval?
Yes. The 3:4 and 2:3 presets produce tall ovals for headshots; the custom slider goes down to 1:2 for an even narrower shape.
Can I crop a photo into a horizontal oval?
Yes. Pick the 4:3 or 3:2 landscape preset, or push the slider up to 2:1 for a wide ellipse that fits couples and group photos.
Will the background outside the oval be transparent?
When you download as PNG, yes — the area outside the ellipse is fully transparent so you can place the oval on any color, photo or document. Choose JPG if you want a solid white background instead.
What size is the exported oval image?
The longest side of the oval is exported at 1024 pixels; the other side follows the ratio you chose. For example a 3:4 portrait oval is 768 × 1024 px.
Is the oval cropper free and private?
Yes. It is free, has no watermark and requires no account. All cropping runs in your browser; the image is never uploaded to a server.
