For the HN crowd, I would recommend exiftool: https://exiftool.org/

My most abused exiftool's command is

`for file in *; do touch -mt "$(exiftool -p '$CreateDate' -d '%Y%m%d%H%M.%S' "$file")" "$file"; done`

Our family uses Apple Photos as the primary photos App. I also try to have a backup exported from it in yearly folders. Whenever I export from Photos, the date of the files are defaulted to the exported date. The above command resets back to the date it was taken.

Works great for videos too, not just photos.

It's also available via MacPorts and Brew:

  port install exiftool

  brew install exiftool
