As you might know, there is title and description tags in jpg and other picture files, that you can use for this purpose. If you buy pictures from Crestock for example, they are all described in detail by using these fields. So, when you add pictures to iPhoto, you can browse or search based on the description tag, or add your own description. If you do so, the description will appear when you add your photo to devices or services that uses this tag. When you for example see a description of a picture on a web page, or on your iOS device, the info comes from this tag. You can see if there is added a title or description to a jpg file by pressing control-I when focused on a file in Finder on a Mac for example.
