One of the neatest features in macOS High Sierra is hidden within the Photos app and allows users to seamlessly integrate with third-party photo services for Projects.
Since macOS High Sierra became available yesterday, several third-party apps have been upgraded to integrate with Projects in Photos, head below as we round them up.
WhiteWall lets you turn photos into beautiful wall art. You can design your own arrangements and prints, choosing from your favorite pictures in Photos. The app is incredibly customizable, allowing you to choose sizes, frame colors and styles, and much more:
WhiteWall is available now on the Mac App Store.
Then swap out images, reposition them on the virtual wall, change their sizes, and crop them as you see fit. Once you’ve selected the images and arrangement you want, you can make changes to the mounting or framing options you’ve selected. With the traditional frames, you can even choose and size the matting to suit your photo. After that, all it takes is a few clicks and your memories are off to WhiteWall for award-winning production.
Mimeo Photos is another great choice that lets you take photos from your Mac and turn them into photobooks, cards, and calendars. All of this can be done directly within the Photos app on macOS High Sierra and you can order physical copies of the end product in all sorts of formats.
Mimeo Photos can be downloaded right here.
After installing from the Mac App Store, get started by simply visiting My Projects and selecting Mimeo Photos from the dropdown. You’ll now be able to choose from a wide range of our premium quality print products.
Mimeo Photos offers a wide array of themes for every occasion. Pick the one that’s perfect for your project, or start from scratch.

Next is Mpix Photo Prints, which builds directly into Photos on macOS for creating and ordering high quality prints, framed prints, metal prints, acrylic prints, and much more.
