Zoom meeting

Have you inherited a bunch of photos but you don’t know who the folks are? Don’t throw the pictures out!!! Tina LaFreniere, developer of Related Faces, will address the basics of facial recognition, discuss techniques for making positive identifications and matches, and demonstrate the use of your cell phone to digitize your old photos. Related Faces is a facial recognition utility that features both powerful technology and ease of use. Tina’s goal for Related Faces is that it will become a place where people can recapture their family history and reconnect with lost family members, brought together by the faces of their common ancestors.


Tina LaFreniere is the founder and CEO of Related Faces Technologies. A graduate of the University of Houston, Tina’s genealogical journey began almost 20 years ago and along the way she inherited thousands of photos from her family, hundreds with no identification. These photos were the inspiration for Related Faces, an idea conceived in 2018. Related Faces launched in February of 2022 and was issued a U.S. Patent in October of that year. Tina is a member of the Genealogical Society of Collier County, Florida, the National Genealogical Society and The Photo Managers Group. Related Faces is an AWS Activate Entrepreneur company and a Family Search Registered Solutions Provider.
