How do you pick the right photobook template?
Start with the photos you already have, not with the prettiest cover. Count the images you actually want to print, check whether they're mostly portrait or landscape, then pick a template whose page rhythm matches. A layout built around one big image per spread will fight you if you're trying to fit 200 holiday snaps.
Two things are worth a look on the product page before you commit. First, the file format: an INDD file wants the InDesign version it was made in or newer, while IDML is the friendlier option if your InDesign is a few releases behind. Second, the licence: of the 50 templates above, 31 link to Adobe Stock, 18 to Envato Elements, and one to Gumroad, and each marketplace words its terms differently - that matters most when the book is for a client or you plan to sell it.
One more thing before you resize a single page: ask your print shop for their specification. Photobook printers each have their own trim sizes, bleed, and page-count rules, and starting from their numbers is far easier than reflowing a finished book.
Frequently asked questions
How many of these photobook templates are free?
Three, and they sit at the very top of the list under Free Photobook Templates. The other 47 are marketplace downloads: 16 modern, 15 minimalist, and 16 simple layouts.
Which software do I need to open them?
Adobe InDesign. Each product page lists the files included in the download, so check there for INDD or IDML before you buy - IDML is the one to look for if you're not on the latest version.
What if the template I want isn't there any more?
Marketplaces retire and re-index templates, so a link can occasionally land somewhere other than the design you expected. The search bar at the top of this post is the quickest way to find a close match, and our roundup of the best InDesign templates points to more sources.
