You will need to change the application to wake up at some interval, use the camera and determine if you are present using face detection or something and if not, to not bothering saving any images until the next time. Repeat this each time and you'll have what you need..

Is there any api for Face Detection for mac osx? Or any sample code ...

I don't believe the FaceTIme API is public..

Are you using AV Foundation for the capture. Look to see if subjectAreaChangeMonitoringEnabled is available on the Mac. Also look at CIDetector and CIFaceFeature, and Core Image's CIFaceDetector which is featured in WWDC2012 session 520 starting at about 19:20.
