Xed Out Whoops—did iPhoto accidentally recognize an animal or a painting as a face? Correct it by moving your cursor to the unnamed face and clicking the X in the upper left corner of the box.

Once you've assigned names to a few faces, the fun starts. iPhoto will learn from your input and try to put names to faces on its own. To help it along, click Faces in the Source list. You'll get a corkboard with entries for every person you've identified. Double-click a person's name, and you'll be asked to confirm or reject photos that iPhoto suspects may be the same human being. One click will confirm the photo as being that person; Option-click to reject the guess. Each time you confirm a correct instance or reject a wrong guess, the application gets a little smarter.

Become a Faces Master Using smart albums, you can label and organize your faces with even more precision and speed.

You can quickly create a smart album for an individual by dragging the person's thumbnail from the Faces corkboard to the Library pane. iPhoto will then build a new album using all photos tagged with his or her name. To build a smart album that searches for multiple people, Command-click each face on the Faces corkboard and drag those images to the Library pane. You can modify the album further if you wish by Control-clicking on it and choosing Edit Smart Album.

To build a smart album that finds photos of multiple people in the same picture, select File -> New Smart Album. If you were looking to collect pictures of your cousin Jimmy and his family, you'd want to set the first condition to Face Is Jimmy; to add Jimmy's wife and kids, click the plus (+) sign and create a similar condition for each person. Make sure you choose Match All to get the collection you want. (If you choose Match Any, you'll get images of any member of the family.)
