Can't you just make the rest of the page or the rest of the sitemore seo friendly?
If you can't change the description, and already have the alt tag sorted out then add some text or keyword ' tags ' etc
Don't dwell too much on the photo

have a look at http://www.seosmarty.com/image-seo/
You can store title of image in database and when fetch image from database then fetch also title. You can give optimized name of image too.

Probably a bit obvious, but can't you move them to an images folder and rename them?

Changing the filename isn't going to make a gnat's nadgers bit of difference. There are far more important things need sorting on the site before worrying about SEOing your product images.

if you can't rename them to a KW friendly word, then there is nothing you can do to make them more seo friendly.
By SEO friendly, I assume you are talking about seo for google image search? If you are talking about general SEO, then the Alt image attribute is what matter ONLY if the image is a clickable link though, as otherwise it is pretty much ignored .

Usually I insert the targetted keyphrases into the filename and attach a relevant alt text to the images. It can be also important to serve the images from a cookieless domain which belongs to a content delivery network, preferably from subdomain.This usually works well for me :)

Hello,
1 - name the image sensibly
2 - place your keyword in the text near the image (helps with google image search)
3 - use an alt attribute in the image tag with your keyword in it
4 - use a description attribute in the image tag with your keyword in it
But beware - too much keyword stuffing will be seen by the search engines as a bad thing and you may be penalised for it.

Alt tags would help it in SEO but if you can manage to change the name through database by editing it manually,it would be best.
