The icons can be turned on and off by going to Survey Details Panel and opening the message center. Right Click in the message center and turn off icons.

Photos can be attached to any point during import from raw data IF the point in the raw data contains ATTRIBUTES that contain PHOTO as the attribute name and the name of JPG for the value of the photo.
