Every portrait group includes one or more portrait photos. Portrait images are styled directly on the portrait page, just like a regular text image frame. Change border size and color, shadow, and other features by directly clicking on an image frame on the page. Unlike regular image frames, you can specify whether the change will apply to the selected frame, to all portraits on the page or all labels in the entire portrait section.
Note that book checkout is not required to make styling changes. Customization of the portrait layout (template) is available in the Advanced Portrait Layout Formatting article.

| Try to match the general framing of the other photos in the image collection, with faces, eyelines and tops of heads roughly aligned. | ![]() |
