If you'd like to work on a project, it's a good idea to fill in your project outline, which you can find here: https://kodi.wiki/view/Google_Summer_of_Code/2018#Outline_for_proposals
This way we can get a better handle on your proposal.

Sure.
Working on it.
Will submit project outline as soon as possible.
Thanks.

I'm not one of the Team devs but here are some potential pointers for you.
There was previous work to introduce a Picture Library was the dev was never happy enough with the database performance, see discussion thread https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=141169 and PR https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/pull/1562 that work was done quite some time ago so the Kodi code that it hooks into may well have changed significantly.
In addition there is a Pictures DB addon that might of of help, see discussion thread https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=133905 and code repo https://github.com/Xycl/plugin.image.mypicsdb
