I wrote my own wrapper around `exiftool` because I wanted a simple way to write EXIF data when exporting photos (e.g. writing out to PersonInImage and keywords to IPTC:Keywords) and the existing python packages like [pyexiftool](https://github.com/smarnach/pyexiftool) didn't do quite what I wanted.  If all you're after is the camera and shot info, that's available in `ZEXTENDEDATTRIBUTES` table.  I've got an open issue [#11](https://github.com/RhetTbull/osxphotos/issues/11) to add this to osxphotos but it hasn't bubbled to the top of my backlog yet.  

osxphotos will give you the location info: `PhotoInfo.location` returns a tuple of (lat, lon) though this info is in ZEXTENDEDATTRIBUTES too (though it might not be correct as I believe Photos creates this table at import and the user might have changed the location of a photo, e.g. if camera didn't have GPS).

It's not exposed yet in the docs because I really only use it right now in the osphotos command line interface to write tags when exporting.  In v0.28.16 (just pushed) I added an ExifTool.as_dict() method which will give you a dict with all the exif tags in a file.  For example:

```python
import osxphotos
photos = osxphotos.PhotosDB().photos()
exiftool = osxphotos.exiftool.ExifTool(photos[0].path)
exifdata = exiftool.as_dict()
tags = exifdata[""IPTC:Keywords""]
```

Not as elegant perhaps as a python only implementation because ExifTool has to make subprocess calls to an external tool but exiftool is by far the best tool available for reading and writing EXIF data and it does support HEIC.

As for implementation, ExifTool uses a singleton pattern so the first time you instantiate it, it spawns an IPC to exiftool but then keeps it open and uses the same process for any subsequent calls (even on different files).

I suspected ZSCENEIDENTIFIER was a foreign key into one of these psi.sqlite tables.  But looks like you're on to something connecting groups to assets.  As for the UUID, I think there's two ints because each is 64-bits but UUIDs are 128-bits.  Thus they need to be combined to get the 128 bit UUID.  You might be able to use Apple's [NSUUID](https://developer.apple.com/documentation/foundation/nsuuid?language=objc), for example, by wrapping with pyObjC.  Here's one [example](https://github.com/ronaldoussoren/pyobjc/blob/881c82a7ba90f193934b52b44143360c80dce5e5/pyobjc-framework-Cocoa/PyObjCTest/test_nsuuid.py) of using this in PyObjC's test suite.
