Do My DSLR Booth Templates Still Work in LumaBooth? (Yes — Here’s How)

This is the question that fills my inbox: “Michael, I just updated to LumaBooth — do my DSLR Booth templates still work?” Short answer: yes, all of them. Here’s the longer answer, plus exactly how to load them.

Your existing templates carry over automatically

When dslrBooth became LumaBooth for Windows in the 8.0 update, the template format stayed the same. That means every design already saved on your machine appears in LumaBooth after updating — no conversion, no re-import, nothing to redo. Your events, settings and saved data come along too.

How to add a new template in LumaBooth

Adding fresh designs works just like it always has in dslrBooth:

  1. Download the template (it’ll be in the DSLR Booth / LumaBooth format).
  2. Unzip it if it arrived as a .zip.
  3. In LumaBooth, open Settings → Templates and choose to import or add a template.
  4. Point it at the template file, set your print size, and run a test print before the event.

That’s it. If you can install a template in dslrBooth, you already know how to do it in LumaBooth.

Will templates labelled “DSLR Booth” still be made?

Yes. The format hasn’t changed, so a template described as a “DSLR Booth template” is exactly what you load into LumaBooth. You’ll see both names used interchangeably for a while — that’s normal during a rebrand. Everything I list on this site is in that compatible format, including the 25 best templates and the 10 free templates.

Where to get more templates

The 8.0 update bundles 820+ templates, which is a great start — but if you want designs that help you stand out from every other booth in town, it’s worth building your own curated library. I keep round-ups by occasion so you can grab what you need:

All of the premium and free designs I recommend are available to download from TemplatesBooth in the ready-to-use DSLR Booth / LumaBooth format.
