Default Insert photo gps information in column next to photo

Hello,

I'm looking for a way to insert multiple pictures into a two column table that sets each photos width to a specified size and locks the aspect ratio for the height allowing one picture per row and adding rows as needed. I then need to insert the information about the gps location of the picture into the second column for each picture. I have this information in the file detail area of each photo when I go into properties. I have found an amazing macro on here that works well for inserting the photos into a table below. I'm completely new to macros and not sure how to change captioning the picture so that it includes the gps data instead and how to put this information in the column next to the picture instead of the row below. Any help or suggestions would be immensely appreciated.

Code:
Sub AddPicsWithCaption()
'Sourced from: https://www.msofficeforums.com/drawi...-document.html
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Dim Stl As Style, i As Long, j As Long, c As Long, r As Long, NumCols As Long, iShp As InlineShape
Dim oTbl As Table, TblWdth As Single, StrTxt As String, RwHght As Single, ColWdth As Single
With ActiveDocument.PageSetup
  TblWdth = .PageWidth - .LeftMargin - .RightMargin - .Gutter
End With
On Error GoTo ErrExit
NumCols = CLng(InputBox("How Many Columns per Row?"))
ColWdth = PointsToCentimeters(TblWdth / NumCols)
ColWdth = CentimetersToPoints(CSng(InputBox("What max width for the pictures, in Centimeters (e.g. " & Format(ColWdth, "0.00") & ")?")))
RwHght = CentimetersToPoints(CSng(InputBox("What max height for the pictures, in Centimeters (e.g. 5)?")))
On Error GoTo 0
'Select and insert the Pics
With Application.FileDialog(msoFileDialogFilePicker)
  .Title = "Select image files and click OK"
  .Filters.Add "Images", "*.gif; *.jpg; *.jpeg; *.bmp; *.tif; *.png"
  .FilterIndex = 2
  If .Show = -1 Then
    'Create a paragraph Style with 0 space before/after & centre-aligned
    With ActiveDocument
      On Error Resume Next
      Set Stl = .Styles("TblPic")
     If Stl Is Nothing Then Set Stl = .Styles.Add(Name:="TblPic", Type:=wdStyleTypeParagraph)

      For c = 1 To NumCols
        j = j + 1
        'Insert the Picture
        Set iShp = ActiveDocument.InlineShapes.AddPicture( _
