Reading JPG headers / image information with ASP

Im currently developing a custom image database. The images are coming from the Graphics department as jpeg's and have information embedded in them with Adobe Photoshop (ie. Caption, who shot the picture, keywords) I need to know how to pull this information from a jpeg using ASP or if there is a thrid party software that will extract and add to SQL database for search functions(i know its a long shot) Any information will be helpfull.

Thanks.
