Automating Student Portrait Layouts Using Templates in Photoshop Without Coding

[Adi1231234]

Hi!

I'm a professional photographer tasked with taking individual student portraits at various schools each year. After the photo sessions, I usually edit these images in Photoshop, arranging them in an organized manner on a single page. Each student's photo is accompanied by a frame and their name, which I manually add beneath each picture. The names are derived from the photo filenames.I am exploring ways to streamline my workflow by automatically generating this layout using a template. The goal is to place all the individual portraits on one page and automatically add each student's name beneath their photo, utilizing the filenames as the source for the names, all without engaging in complex scripting or coding.

Does Photoshop offer any built-in features or perhaps an external plugin that could automate the creation of these layouts from a template? I'm specifically looking for a solution that can auto-populate a template with the photos and their corresponding names, thereby reducing the manual effort involved in the layout and labeling process.I'm open to any advice, guides, or tool recommendations that can help achieve this with minimal manual intervention. If anyone knows of a method to efficiently utilize templates in Photoshop for this purpose, or if there's a more straightforward approach to accomplishing this task, I would greatly appreciate your insights.

Thank you so much for your support and suggestions!

I am needing something really similar.

I have a base template for sports teams.

Inside the photos, I have a "subject" group/layer, which is where extracted photos will go inside.

I want to fill the layer with the subject in the template, and then export as a certain size jpeg.

If you have tried the various suggestions from earlier in the topic, or have no problems with using a custom script, then you will need to provide sample files, examples of the finished results etc. You can make the samples low resolution and redact any personal details/facial features etc.
