Conveniently, this event seems to correspond precisely to iPhoto's import command.

iPhoto .sdef extract:

<command name="import" code="corecimp" description="Import the given path.">
	<direct-parameter type="specifier" description="the object for the command"/>
	<parameter name="from" code="impt" type="text" description="The path(s) to import."/>
	<parameter name="force copy" code="forc" type="integer" optional="yes" description="Pass true to ignore advanced preference and always create copy in iPhoto library.  Useful if original may be in a temporary directory.  Default is true."/>
	<parameter name="to" code="insh" type="album" optional="yes" description="The album to which to import the object.  If none specified, import into main Library."/>
</command>
