Easy Way
- Make sure iPhoto is quit.
- Unzip the package you downloaded from this website.
- Go to your Applications folder, and Ctrl-Click the iPhoto application icon to show a floating menu. Click the “Get Info” menu item. Your iPhoto Info Window should look something like this:

- Press the “Add…” button under the “Plug-ins” tree, and using the Finder popup, find where the unzipped contents of the package are. The unzipped package should have a name “Photon.iPhotoExporter”.
- Make sure that the Photon plugin is included under the list shown in the image above.
- Open iPhoto, test and please inform me of any issues.
Not-so-easy Way
- Make sure iPhoto is quit.
- Unzip the package downloaded from this site. The package should have a name called “Photon.iPhotoExporter”.
- Go to your Applications folder and Ctrl-Click the iPhoto application icon. Select the “Show Package Contents” menu item. Doing so should open up a Finder window with a “Contents” folder inside it.
- In this Finder window, go to Contents -> Plugins. If you find an old existing “Photon.iPhotoExporter” folder inside, move it to Trash, for you should be using a newer version.
- Drop the just-extracted “Photon.iPhotoExporter” folder to the Plugins folder from the Finder window we opened earlier.
- Open iPhoto, test and please inform me of any issues.
