RDA allows you to use as unit name (aka SMD) a popular term rather
than a term from the RDA carrier list. So this is fine.
The "b&w" should be "black and white". and unless there is a new
LC/PCC PS, the size should be in cm. Your unit name above is more
exact than just "photograph", particularly since most patrons do not
think of "photograph" as being limited to prints on light sensitive
paper. Be as helpful and informative as RDA allows. Cont's dumb
down.
The GMD would be replaced by:
336 $astill image$2rdacontent
337 $aunmediated$2rdamedia
338 $asheet$2rdacarrier
Certainly your unit name above is more helpful to patrons than "sheet"
or "card". (Some photographs might be "card" rather than "sheet".)
The ISBD version of 336 would be 336 $aimage (still)$2isbdcontent.
Most ISBD Area 0 terms more more comprehensible than the RDA ones. as
well as being briefer, e.g., "image (moving)" rather than
"two-dimensional moving image". (MARC has added the $2ibd source
codes.)
