Photo search by selfie: find your shots in seconds

How does photo search by selfie work?

The idea is simple. Once your gallery is online, you share a dedicated link. The person opens it, takes a selfie with their phone camera, and a facial-recognition AI matches their face against the people in your photos. Within seconds, they get every photo they appear in — ready to download in high resolution.

• No app to install: everything happens in the browser
• Results in seconds, even across thousands of photos
• Each person only sees THEIR photos, never the full album

Why it's a game-changer for photographers

After a wedding or an event, delivering the right photos to the right people takes hours. Selfie search fully automates this step: your guests serve themselves, your photos travel under your brand, and you save precious time while offering a memorable experience.

Privacy and data protection

Facial recognition is used only to match a selfie against the photos of the relevant gallery. The selfie is not reused for other purposes, and each participant explicitly consents before taking it. Galleries stay private, can be password-protected and given an expiry date — you keep full control over who accesses what.

• Explicit consent before the selfie is captured
• The selfie is used only for matching, nothing else
• Galleries protected by password and configurable expiry

Try it yourself

Selfie search is included from the Studio plan. Create your gallery, enable the feature, and share the link with your guests. See how Atelier Pixels stands out as a Pixieset alternative thanks to this unique feature.
