Real-Time Photography for Conferences, Corporate Events, & Trade Shows
What are Facial Recognition Services, anyway?
-
Clients register their phone numbers and take selfie to share with their software. They will then receive any pictures taken throughout the event which include their face.
At Photography by Misty, we share a QR code in advance of the event and recommend share it to attendees in the "know Before You Go" email reminder. We also bring a pop-up banner to the event. However, the check-in process can be a little chaotic and team members may forget to ask attendees to register. Photography by Misty can also bring laminated fliers with QR code and instruction to be posted throughout the event.
-
Facial recognition services are a way to share event pictures with attendees by sending them via text message.
At Photography by Misty, we call this service Real Time photography delivery. How often do you attend an event, are excited to see the pictures, but are never able to see them? All the time, right. We heard about this software, we had jump on board.
-
Yes, you should receive all the pictures taken at the event. Your photographer may choose to deliver at a later date in order to have time to edit the pictures.
At Photography by Misty, we give you the option to receive all images taken through our AI Software, or more commonly known as facial recognition, the next day. Give us a little more time, and we can deliver edited (enhanced lighting and cropping) pictures.
-
Facial recognition photography services can be turned on and off throughout the event. You may not find it beneficial for it to be in play during the entirety of corporate events.
At Photography by Misty, we recommend turning off Facial Recognition photography services during breakouts and presentations. However, if, for example, the CEO flew in for your VIEvent or if you have a celebrity speaker, we can turn it on long enough to get a few great shots for immediate use on socials. While the speaker may not want those images delivered to their phone, with their permission, you can register their face with a Marketing Department cell phone.
-
It may be easier to share an album of pictures with all those in attendance, but there are many benefits to Facial Recognition delivery with attendees receiving only the pictures that they are in.
From our experience at Photography by Misty, those attending corporate and personal events do not everyone to have access to their pictures, nor do they want to go through 100s (or maybe even 1,000-plus) pictures looking for the ones they want. When using Facial Recognition photography services only the pictures you and your colleagues of friends will be delivered to your phone. Sometimes at corporate events, there are trade secrets, product launches and other brand-sensitive information that you don't want published.
