I know that if you send someone a picture and they save it, it sometimes will show the location of the photo.

However, if you were to email a photo/video from your iPhone, or post it online anywhere at all, is there any way someone could find out where the picture was taken? Like is the location somehow embedded into the photo?

Is it the same way with video?

yep, it saves all that. you can restrict the camera app's location access, though.
 
Yes it saves your location. That's why you must be very careful with what picture you post online if your settings don't stop it.
