AlbumMaker is a native Mac & Windows app that revolutionizes how professional photographers design albums. Existing solutions like SmartAlbums cost $240+/year and require massive 500MB installs. AlbumMaker installs in under 15MB, features a smart auto-layout engine for instant spread generation, and allows you to export print-ready, full-bleed CMYK PDFs and layered PSDs completely for free. No subscriptions, no browser lag, just lightning-fast design.
Hi Product Hunt! 👋 I'm Chamod, the creator of AlbumMaker.
For years, professional wedding and portrait photographers have been forced to pay expensive $240+ annual subscriptions just to design simple photo albums. Even worse, those legacy apps are incredibly bloated (often 500MB+ installs) and notoriously slow.
I built AlbumMaker to fix this. My goals were simple:
Make it native and lightweight: The installer is under 15MB and opens in one second.
Automate the boring stuff: The smart auto-layout engine instantly arranges your photos as you drop them on the timeline.
Make the core product free: You can design unlimited albums and export print-ready CMYK PDFs (and layered PSDs) for zero cost. No watermarks.
I’d absolutely love for the photographers and designers here to stress-test it with high-res images and let me know what you think of the speed and layouts! Let me know what features I should build next!
