Instagram Stories allow users to upload one photo per Story. However, if you’re trying to create a collage effect, you would essentially need to create it separately and then upload it where it would basically be treated as a single photo. The problem with this method is that you can’t really make changes once you’ve already created the collage.
The good news is that it looks like Instagram has heard its users and in an announcement on Twitter, Instagram revealed that users can now upload multiple photos to a single Story through the new Layout feature. For those unfamiliar, Layout is an app by Instagram that lets users create collages.
With this announcement, it looks like Instagram has decided to integrate Layout into Stories, similar to how Boomerang is also now part of Instagram (but it still exists as a separate app for those who prefer it that way). Users can now upload anywhere between two to six photos per collage and make edits similar to how they would edit a normal Story, by doodling on it, adding text, emojis, GIFs, and more.

The new feature should already be live for users so check it out if you haven’t done so already.
