The subject application is directed to a system and method for detecting facial areas from an image having a relatively light background. Image data is received including at least one candidate facial region. A candidate facial region is isolated from the image data as is a subportion of an interior of the candidate facial region. A size of the subportion is compared relative to a preselected threshold size value, a luminance value of the subportion is compared with a preselected darkness threshold value, and a facial recognition signal is generated corresponding to a detected facial region in accordance with an output of the size comparison and the luminance comparison.
