Mini Accordion Album | Lightroom Templates
** Updated for Lightroom 2.6 **
I love these mini accordion albums from J. Lee Albums. They are the perfect size for your purse, and clients love 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 Templates 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! :-)

I originally posted these templates in Oct 2008. I wanted to make sure they still work with the latest version of Lightroom (currently 2.6), so I’ve updated the templates and re-posted the zip file above. Please let me know if they do not work for you!
