Lesser Strengthen Mind (3) Photographic Memory (10), Lesser Transform Matter (8), put your hand over the lens and push the button. Picture ejects, made the spell roll by 6, we have a picture.
I'd use a Lesser Transform Body effect and that's it along with the picture. Arguments could be made for Path of Magic skills if you're defeating JUST scrying.
