If you want to pan a photo within a region that is smaller than photo's
dimensions, group the photo, set the size of the group to your desired rect
and position, and then lock the group.  You will be able to move the photo
within the group using the grab command or your own script routine.

For reference, you might want to look at a tile demo stack that isn't
exactly what you're doing but employs a similar principle.  Execute the
following in your message box:
