  • Patent number: 8065197
    Abstract: A method for automatically evaluating photographic performance is provided. The method includes recording with a camera device one or more images during a photography session. The images are digitally stored, and image information related to the images is automatically compiled. The image information may include sales data, image content data, image capture data, and sales condition data. Other image information may be manually compiled. At least one photographic performance metric is automatically generated using at least one of the images and the image information. The performance metric acts to facilitate evaluation of one or more aspects of photographic performance. A system and a computer program product for automatically evaluating photographic performance are also provided.
