Thanks for filing the request!
This is actually a known issue - the EXIF metadata should be retained for photos and videos. I'll change this over to a 'bug' and will post here as soon as we have any updates.

We have just released a new version of the Google Photos Library API that now supports this feature.
You can now use the "d" base URL parameter to download the original image that contains most EXIF metadata. See the base URL parameter guide for more details:https://developers.google.com/photos/library/guides/access-media-items#image-base-urls
Thanks for your patience!
(Videos are a different issue that is somewhat related tohttps://issuetracker.google.com/80149160 . I'll close this one for now as it seems to address your use case around photos, but please file a feature request outlining your use case for videos.)

Thanks! This is a great step forward. I definitely would like it for videos, too. I will open a new issue for that.
Why is it missing the location metadata? That's one of the most important fields for my use case -- preserving user's memories, including where they were at. (The program we're writing is run on the user's computer, and it never goes to our servers or anything, we don't even have our own servers -- so it's not a privacy violation... purely client-side.)

Awesome. Now just add this EXIF metadata to the Photos API and I will be happy :)

Wait it still doesn't include location metadata ?!?! That's the one thing that I wanted from the EXIF data :(
