New template library gives volume photographers a faster way to create professional, personalized sports products without designing every layout from scratch at no additional cost
AUSTIN, Texas — August 25, 2026 — WaldoPro, the AI-powered sales and workflow platform for volume photographers, today announced the launch of more than 1,000 ready-made Memory Mate templates and Smart Color Matching, a new technology that automatically coordinates each design with an athlete’s jersey color.
WaldoPro’s new Memory Mate template library, combined with WaldoPro’s new Picture Day Pro app, creates a smarter, faster workflow. Instead of manually building each Memory Mate, photographers can choose from professionally designed templates organized by sport, orientation, color theme, and number of photo slots from within the WaldoPro custom print configurator.
Once selected, each template opens fully assembled in the designer with background and foreground artwork, positioned photo slots, athlete name fields, and the dynamic logo insertion. Photographers can use the design as-is or customize any element and save as a new template.
“Volume photographers shouldn’t have to spend hours building out products for every team and sport,” said Rodney Rice, CEO of Waldo. “With more than 1,000 ready-to-use Memory Mate templates, they can start with a professional design, make it their own, and have a finished product ready to sell in minutes.”
Designs That Automatically Match Each Athlete
WaldoPro’s new Smart Color Matching takes personalization a step further by presenting each athlete with a color variant that matches the athlete’s jersey color.
WaldoPro’s Smart Color Matching is ideal for league sports as it dramatically simplifies product creation.
“Smart Color Matching eliminates the need to create separate products for every team’s color,” Rice said. “The photographer sets up one product, and WaldoPro automatically presents each family a Memory Mate that looks like it was designed specifically for their athlete.”
Photographers remain in control throughout the process. They can preview different color variants, enable or disable Smart Color Matching, replace backgrounds, customize template elements, or continue building custom prints with WaldoPro’s custom print configurator from scratch.
A Faster Memory Mate Workflow
The new experience allows WaldoPro photographers to:
- Browse more than 1,000 professionally designed Memory Mate templates
- Filter designs by sport, portrait or landscape orientation, color theme, and number of photo slots
- Create standard 8-by-10 portrait or 10-by-8 landscape Memory Mates
- Open templates prebuilt with artwork, photo placements, name fields, and school, league, or team logos
- Customize any template using WaldoPro’s existing card designer
- Automatically coordinate designs with each athlete’s jersey color
- Name, save, and reuse finished products through the photographer’s custom print catalog
- Continue creating products from scratch in any desired size
The template library and Smart Color Matching build on WaldoPro’s Custom Print Configurator and broader suite of tools designed to reduce production labor, simplify Picture Day, and help photographers sell more products.
The new Custom Print Templates and Smart Color Matching features are available immediately for WaldoPro photographers.
