A selfie search compares a reference image with faces found in one event gallery and returns likely matches. Use the organizer's official event page and choose a clear, current photograph of yourself.
This guide focuses on getting a useful result and checking the suggested photographs carefully.
Confirm the event first
Confirm that the page names the correct event and organizer. Check whether the final gallery has finished processing, then use a photograph that contains only your face.
Take a useful reference selfie
Use one face, looking mostly toward the camera, in even light. Remove sunglasses, masks, and heavy shadows. Keep the face large enough to see clearly, but do not crop away the full outline.
Avoid a group photograph, a heavily filtered image, or a picture from many years ago when a current image is available.
Review results as possibilities
Face search is not a statement of identity. Lighting, pose, age, blur, occlusion, and camera distance can produce misses or weak candidates. Verify each result visually and ignore any person who is not you.
In an Event Face Finder guest search, the search is scoped to the selected event and the selfie is treated as search input rather than gallery content.
Search checklist
- Official event route confirmed
- Correct event and final upload status checked
- One current, clear face used
- No unrelated people included
- Results reviewed manually
- Retry uses a better image, not repeated random uploads
- Support route noted if one careful retry fails
If the first result is weak, replace the reference with one clear front-facing image and retry once before contacting support.
