If you have already made a design for an event, you should be able to use it in Photo Booth App without building it again in the editor.
Since version 1.14.0, you can turn your own image into a template. The app keeps your artwork, fonts and colours, then puts your guests' photos in the openings.
Start with your image
Open Create Template → From Image and choose a PNG or JPG from Photos or Files.
A PNG can have transparent openings. A JPG can have plain boxes where the photos should go. You can also import a finished design with sample photos: Photo Booth App turns those into photo spots.
Round, heart-shaped and arched openings keep their shape, so the guest photo fits the opening in your design.
You can send an image into the app from elsewhere too. Open it in Photos, tap Share → PhotoBooth, or use Open In from an app that shares image files.
Check the spots before continuing
The preview shows the photo spots with numbers. Check that they are in the right places before creating the template.
The app chooses the nearest print size without stretching the artwork. If fitting it would need more than a small trim, you can crop it, choose a custom size or pick a different image.
It is worth doing this part before the event, especially if you plan to print the photos.
Keep the artwork in place
Imported designs start locked in the editor. That lets you move and resize the photo spots without accidentally dragging the background.
You can lock other elements from their ••• menu too. Press and hold a locked element to unlock it. If you update the artwork later, Replace Image swaps in the new version and adjusts the spots if its openings have changed.
This is one of the updates covered in What's New in Photo Booth App: October 2026. I hope it makes the app easier to use with designs you have already spent time on. If an image does not import as you expected, please send me your feedback.
Thank you for reading ❤️
