This goes back to the way the brain works and the requirement that the object must be in view (optics). When those two phenomenon come together, we get a mirror image. Mirror images do not require travel from point to point. They are an exact replica but on the other side of the imaginary coin, which I've stated more than once.  |

If it is physically present at the same location as the film, how does it get there without traveling, materializing as a duplicate, or teleporting?

LadyShea, the light does travel and that wavelength continues on until it fades do to the inverse square law you mentioned. When you are looking at the object through a lens (which is exactly the same thing as looking the through the lens of an eye, the only difference being that the brain, looking through the eyes, sees the object in real time due to that (P) reflected light, and that same light used by a camera is instantly at the film), the film and the light intersect. Depending how far away you are from the object, the camera will resolve what the pixels pick up based on that distance, and it will be recorded in real time because when you're looking at something efferently, the (P) reflection coming from the object is not traveling; it is a mirror image.
