SmartalbumsSmartAlbums is album design software for professional photographers. Known for years as Pixellu, we have been building tools for wedding, portrait, and family photographers since 2010.SmartAlbums turns a folder of images into a finished, print-ready album design in minutes using intelligent layout technology and thousands of handcrafted templates. Drop your photos in, make cuts in the timeline, and watch the spreads build themselves, then customize layouts, colors, fonts, text, and backgrounds however you like.Every major print lab's specifications are built into SmartAlbums, so bleeds, margins, and safe zones are handled automatically, and built-in safety checks catch problems before files reach the lab. Our proofing feature lets you easily publish a draft, collect client feedback, and make revisions. Alongside SmartAlbums, we make SmartGalleries for delivering and proofing client photos online, and SmartSlides for creating cinematic photo slideshows set to music. The three work together: client favorites flow from a gallery straight into an album design, and slideshows embed directly into the gallery your client is already viewing.Photographers in more than 100 countries use SmartAlbums, SmartGalleries, and SmartSlides, supported by a distributed team spanning four continents. Both Mac and Windows are supported, with a free 14-day trial and no credit card required.Learn more here: https://www.smartalbums.com/

I own both SmartAlbums and SmartSlides and they have transformed how I deliver images to my clients - they are sleek, beautiful, super user friendly (both back end for me, and client facing end) and just work like a dream. I also have received amazing support any time I've reached out to the team. Such a class act, and an amazing investment to make in my small studio.

Pixellu is an integral part of my business! Both SmartSlides and SmartAlbums make my workflow seamless and improve the client experience significantly! If I could, I would give more than 5 stars!

This guys are doing a great job. I was using another ways, and since I found them they made my life easier. Their system is intuitive, easy to use, and above all beautiful. My Slideshows look much more better now. And making Album is finally fun.

I love this company! Each product they've offered to the market has clearly been well thought out from a user perspective. In addition (and this is a huge value add) their custom service has excelled. I fully recommend using Pixellu.

Awesome Products and company! I love using Pixellu for both slideshows and album designs. Both are easy to use and have helped streamline our processes. Album designs that could easily take a day are up and running in seconds and super easy to adjust. Great customer service and hands-on support.

I'm a professional photographer who have been using album design softwares over the past 14 years and I have to say that Pixellu checks all the boxes when it comes to speed, ease of use, price, support and overall asethetic quality. The most impressive feature is that it, unlike most of its competitors, the software dynamically changes the layout if you add more images to the spread. And instead of prowling through dozens of blank templates, you can actively preview the layouts and different versions of it by toggling the UP or DOWN cursor. Very importantly, it is vector-based and provides easy scaling when it comes to the output stage. This saves storage space (imagine your unflattened layers while working in Bitmap for Photoshop) and takes away the headache when your client decides to upgrade to a bigger album while you're halfway working on the layout.
