A digital image processing apparatus for easily obtaining information regarding a face, a method of controlling the same, and a recording medium for storing a program for executing the method. The digital image processing apparatus includes a face recognition unit recognising a face from an image, a face index assignment unit assigning a face index to the recognized face if the face recognised from the image is not a previously recognised face, and a relation index update unit that, if the image includes a second face, updates a relation index corresponding to the number of times the first face and second face appear together in a plurality of images. The face index may comprise personal information. The relation index update unit may comprise a relation index assignment unit for assigning a relation index to the first face if the first face does not have a relation index corresponding to the second face and a relation index modifier for modifying the relation index if the first face already has a relation index corresponding to the second face. The relation index assignment unit may assign a value of 1 to the relation index and the relation index modifier may increase the value of the relation index by 1. |
