A Note About Our QR-Code Reader Cards:
Island Photography has integrated facial recognition software to enhance accuracy in identifying graduate's faces to names. Scanning the QR Code here or on the reader cards asks the graduate to enter their current contact information as well as their family or friends' emails to share their proofs. At the end, they will be requested to take a selfie which will be used internally for facial recognition.
The Importance of Our QR Selfie Check-in:
- Greatly increases identification accuracy (facial recognition).
- Hugely impacts the speed of proof delivery (within hours after the ceremony).
- Helps connect family members to proofs (who in most cases are the ones purchasing).
- Confirms current contact information beyond edu emails. It is paramount that ONLY the graduate complete the QR Selfie Check-In.
