Craig Swanson of CreativeTechs has put together a clever how-to on adding face recognition capabilities to a photographer's Adobe-centric workflow.
As Swanson notes, the face recognition that Apple added to iPhoto '09 was noteworthy because "easily keywording photo libraries with people’s names is a game changer for many businesses." And yet few creative pros use iPhoto at work.
