Adobe Bridge can easily help you create a contact sheet with any set of photos.

If you are using Photoshop to edit your photos, save the edited images you wish to use in your contact sheet in their own folder.

Once everything is saved, go to your Applications folder and locate Adobe Bridge.

When you open up bridge, navigate through the folders to find the folder of images you wish to create a contact sheet out of by using either the Favorites or Folders tab on the right side of your screen.
