Content aware cropping techniques are described in which a combined crop and fill operation may be performed in one-step using an automated workflow. In one or more implementations, an image is exposed for editing in a user interface and input is obtained that indicates a position for a crop frame to select a portion of the image. The crop frame may be employed as a basis for a combined crop and fill operation that is initiated by a single input or trigger that causes a sequence of actions to automatically crop the image, recognize portions of empty pixels to fill, apply a content aware fill algorithm, and produce a resulting output image. In one or more implementations, a size of the crop frame may be controlled to maintain at least one of image size, aspect ratio, or pixel resolution.
