1. An electronic device comprising:
a camera;
a display;
memory storing one or more computer programs; and
one or more processors communicatively coupled to the camera, the display, and the memory,
wherein the memory store one or more computer programs include computer-executable instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors individually or collectively, cause the electronic device to:
detect at least one piece of face recognition information based on a plurality of subjects included in an image received in a capture mode where a gaze recognition capturing function is activated, the face recognition information being detected by comparing when one of the plurality of subjects gazes at a specific portion of each edge of the display in the capture mode and when the subject gazes at a front of the camera,
upon identifying a presence of at least two pieces of face recognition information mapped with gaze calibration information among the at least one piece of face recognition information, detect score information about the at least two pieces of face recognition information based on depth information and body information,
determine that a subject corresponding to face recognition information including highest score information among the at least two pieces of face recognition information is a capturer, and
when the determined capturer gazes at a capture button, perform a first image capturing function of displaying a captured image on the display.
