A device, system and method for notifying a person-of-interest of their location within an estimated field-of-view of a camera is provided. The device: identifies a person-of-interest in an area proximal one or more of a first camera and the device; receives and processes images from the first camera to identify a second camera located in the area; determines a location of the person-of-interest; and determines, from the images, a respective location and estimated field-of-view of the second camera; determines, by comparing the location of the person-of-interest and the respective location and estimated field-of-view of the second camera, whether the person-of-interest is located within the estimated field-of-view of the second camera; and, when the person-of-interest is located within the estimated field-of-view of the second camera, controls a notification device to provide a notification to notify the person-of-interest of their location within the estimated field-of-view of the second camera.
