Transfer Live-Photos from Mac to iPhone without iCloud

It is still not possible to transfer Live-Photos from Mac to iPhone without iCloud, is it? Airdrop is not an option when the data size is too big. When exporting the Live-Photos as unmodified original, a photo and a video is being stored. And it can be synthesized again in the Photos App on Mac but not on IOS. Please give me a reliable method without Third-party software and without iCloud to Transfer Live-Photos from MacOS to IOS without losing the video component.
