Are there templates?
LR has quite a few preset templates.
If you make a new one, just be sure to save it as a preset.
If you want irregular shapes, you will have to stick to PS.
Again, if you take the time to make a new template in PS, be sure to save as psd.

This is probably heresy, but I find using PowerPoint and inserting the images into a presentation a very straightforward, uncomplicated tool for assembling multiple graphic elements (text and shapes), including photographs, onto a canvas. When you have everything in place the way you want it, you can group the images/objects all together as a single object and save as a .jpg or .png or .tiff and send to your printer. Or, after grouping, select the group and create a new file in Photoshop from the clipboard for further processing if you like.

The Lightroom templates reside in the print module? Where are Photoshop templates, also print?

Yes, print module in LR.
PS does not have templates that I know of ... but sure you can purchase some somewhere online.
Easy enough to make though.

Here's the template layout from above as a jpg.
Bring into PS and use the magic wand, or color range tool to select different colors and
ctrl j to add them to new layers.
Add your backgound color layer below all the image layers. This would show through the white sections.

Thank you, that will help me get clear on how it's done.
