So other than archiving, there really is no value in collecting photos if you can&rsquo;t go back and find the ones you are looking for.</p> <p>A few years ago I switched to using <a href="http://imageingester.com/ii-info.php">Image Ingester Pro</a> and <a href="http://www.adobe.com/products/photoshoplightroom/">Adobe Photoshop Lightroom</a> to import and catalog my photos. Now one of the first things I do after importing photos, is to add keywords describing the event, the place, and the people. But, I still have tens of thousands of photos that have no keywords, and there is no easy or automated way to add keywords to these photos. One thing that can be automated is adding people keywords to photos based on automated face recognition.</p>
