Polaroid Carousel
A polaroid-style image carousel with caption overlays that gives photo collections a warm, editorial feel.
What It Does
The Polaroid Carousel module displays a collection of images styled as polaroid photographs — each with a white border frame and an optional caption overlaid at the bottom. Visitors can swipe or drag through the cards in a smooth horizontal carousel. The section background is fully configurable, supporting solid colours, gradients, or background images.
Best Used For
- Photo galleries with a warm, personal, or editorial aesthetic
- Team or behind-the-scenes photo collections
- Event recap sections where each image tells part of a story
- Brand storytelling sections where the polaroid style fits the visual identity
Variants
Default
Images are presented in polaroid frames with white borders. Each card can include an optional caption text. The carousel is horizontally scrollable with drag and swipe support.
Best for: Photo-heavy sections where the polaroid aesthetic adds character and warmth

Tips for Great Results
- Use square or portrait-orientation photos for the best polaroid framing — the white border is most visible on these formats.
- Add short, memorable captions (3–8 words) to each card for context without overwhelming the visual.
- Choose a background that contrasts with the white polaroid frames — a dark or rich colour makes the cards pop.
- Include at least 4 cards so the carousel has enough content to scroll through naturally.
Supported Languages
