How does face recognition for wedding photos work?

Your photographer or couple uploads wedding photos to Pixeva. AI indexes every face. Guests scan a QR code or open the invite link, take a selfie, and instantly see every ceremony, reception, and dance-floor photo they appear in.

Do wedding guests need an app?

No. Guests use a browser on any phone. Share a QR code on table cards or your wedding website: selfie search works without downloads or accounts.

Is guest selfie data kept after search?

Guest selfies used for search are deleted after processing. Each wedding gallery is isolated, and organizers can delete event data anytime.

Can guests upload their own wedding photos?

Yes. Share a QR on place cards or tent cards. Guests upload phone candids into the same gallery as photographer selects, which can also power a live reception photo wall.

Is Pixeva better than Google Drive for wedding guests?

Drive works as a photographer archive. Pixeva is better for guests: QR access and selfie search instead of scrolling thousands of files. Many weddings use both.

Can photographers use Camera FTP or cloud sync?

Yes. Pros can tether via Camera FTP or import from Dropbox and Google Drive. Faces are indexed automatically so guest selfie search stays accurate.

How it works

Live in three steps

Upload once. Share a QR. Guests find themselves.

Upload the wedding gallery

Photographers (and guests) upload to Pixeva. AI indexes every face—even group shots and low-light reception photos.

Share the invite QR

Display the code on table cards, your wedding website, or reception screens. Guests open a browser—no app needed.

Selfie → their photos

One clear selfie finds every frame of them across the wedding. Download, share, and create highlight reels.

Guest experience

From table card to their photos

Print a QR on place cards or tent cards. Guests scan once, upload candids, and later find every frame of themselves with a selfie.

No app install. No Drive scavenger hunt. Just the moments that matter.

Why wedding photo sharing usually fails

Guests leave with hundreds of phone shots. Photographers deliver thousands more. Shared Drive folders and WhatsApp threads bury the good ones.

Drive dumps

Easy for the photographer. Impossible for Grandma to find herself in 3,000 files.

Chat chaos

“Send me my photos” never ends. Half the crew never uploads to the shared folder.

App friction

Guests will not install another app at the reception. Browser + QR wins.
