One selfie. Every photo.
Delivered automatically.
Guests take a quick selfie when they arrive. Every photo they appear in lands in their personal gallery — no searching, no waiting, no post-event emails. It's the single most useful thing BrandStudio does, which is why it's in every plan — not gated behind a premium tier like everyone else.
Every photo finds the person in it
As photos come in, Face Match quietly does the sorting a human never has to: each new frame is matched to the people in it and filed into their personal galleries. Nobody scrolls a 2,000-photo folder looking for themselves.
- Every new photo matched as it arrives
- Personal galleries build themselves during the event
- No tagging, no sorting, no “can you send me mine?”
The photographer knows who just walked up
Smart Guest Recognition: when someone already registered steps in front of the camera, they’re added to that session automatically — they get every photo from the shoot, and the guest list updates by itself. Zero taps for your crew.
- Registered guests join their session automatically
- They get the whole session — not just the frames their face matched
- The guest list updates live, no manual add
One selfie at the door — that’s the whole ask
A guest takes one quick selfie when they arrive. Ten seconds, no app, no account. From that moment on, their photos find them — for this event, and with cross-event matching switched on, every one after it.
- One-time selfie registration, ~10 seconds
- No app to download, no account to create
- Selfies stay encrypted; guests can opt out any time
Delivery happens during the event, not after
Matching completes in seconds and the first text goes out while the party’s still going. Later shots batch politely into digests instead of buzzing their phone forty times — your brand on every notification, not ours.
- First match texts fast; later photos batch into digests
- Branded SMS and email delivery
- No post-event processing wait
Relive the events they forgot they were in
A guest comes back for their fourth event, takes one selfie, confirms it’s them with a quick code to their phone — and finds themselves in photos from the three before it. Switch on cross-event matching and every returning guest gets their whole history with you. You’re not the vendor who shot the party; you’re the one who kept their memories.
- One selfie finds them across every past event you shot
- Verified to their own phone or email before anything is shared
- Auto-notified when a future event adds photos of them

Common questions
Does face recognition work if a guest is wearing sunglasses, a hat, or a mask?
Partially — a full mask breaks matching, but sunglasses and hats usually don't. We match on outfit data (color, pattern, texture) alongside the face, which catches guests when their face is partially blocked or turned away. If the first photo has sunglasses on, a second un-obstructed photo later in the event usually fills the gap.
How accurate is Face Match compared to other event photo platforms?
We match on both face and outfit, while most competitors match faces only. In practice this means we catch photos where a guest is turned sideways, partially behind someone, or looking down. Accuracy also improves through the event as the system sees each guest from more angles.
Do guests need an account or app to use Face Match?
No account, no app. A guest scans a QR code or taps a link, takes one selfie, and gets a branded personal gallery link via SMS with every photo and video they appear in. Takes under 20 seconds, works on any phone, no download required.
Is Face Match included in every plan or do I need to upgrade?
Included in every BrandStudio plan, starting at Capture. Other platforms gate face recognition behind premium tiers — we don't. The feature is the single most useful thing BrandStudio does for guests, so it ships standard rather than as an upsell.
