I love offering these mini accordion albums to my clients. They are the perfect size for your purse, and everyone loves showing them off. So cute!

* If you are a photographer utilizing Adobe Lightroom, I’ve shared a template below along with instructions on how to import the LR preset files. Enjoy!
For Photographers
There are two separate presets in the zip. One is called “mini accordion photos” and the other is “mini accordion window.” Pretty self-explanatory. The larger ones are square photos for inside the album, and the smaller one is for the front window image.
I prefer my inside photos to be 2.5″ since the pages are 3″ square, as this leaves a little room around the photo to act as a border. You can adjust this size to be whatever you like.
Importing the Presets into Lightroom
- Download the LR Accordion Template zip file and extract the files to your desktop.
- In Lightroom, go to the Print Module.
- On the left hand side, under “Template Browser,” right click (or control-click) on “User Templates” and you should see a menu pop up. Choose “Import” and select the file to be imported. (Screenshot below).

If you found these presets useful, please let me hear from you in the comments below. It might encourage me to share more LR presets in the future! :-)
