Sharing Photos from my mac photo library.

If I have entered a title and caption to my photo in my photo library (under the i in a circle), can I share that info when I share the photo?

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 13.4

Photo library different on new MacBook Pro than other devices. I just got a new MacBook Pro. I updated all my devices to 16.3 as well as my desktop iMac to Ventura and set up photo sharing. After building the new shared library it is different on my new MacBook than on other devices. Under settings the Library location is the same on all devices? What am I missing? Photos I took yesterday on my iPhone show in all devices in my "personal library" except on the MacBook? Ideas?

Set Photos to Automatically go into Shared Library In the camera app, can you set it where the shared library button is always turned on automatically? I forget to turn it on when I take a photo and then my pictures don't seem to go into the shared library unless I do it manually. I think I have my settings correct: sharing from camera turned on, share automatically is checked, and share when at home is turned on. I am trying to get all of my photos and my husbands photos to sync so I can make a photo book! Ha! Also, if I add him to my shared library, does he have to add me to his shared library? I hope all of that makes sense!!

Why does Photos on Mac strip photos of Title and Keywords when dragging and dropping? Why does Photos not allow for Title or Keywords in Shared Albums? Photos does not allow for the propagation of certain metadata (Title & Keywords) when trying to share an album or dragging and dropping to another application. I have spent a lot of time adding Titles and Keywords to my photos. I want to be able to share this Metadata. People at Apple say this is as designed to ensure privacy, but then why do they share Location and Caption? Why can't I add a Title or Keyword to a photo in a Shared Album? Maybe Apple should give us the option to share all or none of a photo's metadata.

You can share the caption, when you share a phot in a smart album. When you share each photo individually and do not select several photos at once to share, the caption will be added to the shared photo automatically as a comment in the shared album.
