Camp Photos

We know that camp photos are an incredibly important part of camp for parents, and we are always looking to improve the viewing experience. This summer, our app offers the ability to use facial recognition of your camper to create a custom album just for you!

REGISTRATION CODE: NLR25

Simply download the New Life Ranch app from the App Store for iPhone and the Google Play store for Android. Be sure to use the same email address you used for registration so you'll have the correct pictures from the week show up in your Photo tab.

How to Set Up Facial Recognition

Facial recognition is only available to guardians of camper that are automatically attached in our system,

On the app, go to the More screen, select My Campers.

  1. Select your camper and tap Add Photo (If the camera is black you need to go to the Settings
    app on your phone, find our app and edit the settings to allow camera access.)
  2. Zoom the camera to make your camper’s face the same
    size as the oval.**
  3. Take 2 or 3 photos to increase accuracy of the facial recognition technology.
  4. Photos are automatically saved. You do not need to press the Save button

When uploading photos of your campers for facial recognition, please follow these guidelines:

  • Include a photo where the camper has a straight face.
  • Do not include photos of campers making funny faces.
  • For campers with long hair, include a photo with their hair tied and one with their hair loose.
  • Remove glasses and hats.
  • Make sure there is nobody else in the camera frame.
  • Make sure there is enough light.
