I feel like for verified photography to be useful, it really needs a depth sensor so you can tell the difference between an actual scene and a photo of a photo. Granted, you could 3d print a scene from a photo, but at least for now it should be pretty obvious to tell the difference.

  The iPhone Pros do have a depth sensor, I don’t think it's exported but it does stay in Photos' library.

    It’s stored in the exif data on the photos
