The answer would appear to be yes. The company that crops the images would be obliged to provide the documents, as they are aware that the original images are "porn".
Interestingly, there isn't any direct of explicit rule in the law for people who are mislead by suppliers. It gets to the same thing, in the end, if you are a US based webmaster or company, and you have a model on a website, you need an ID, even if the image doesn't appear to need documents - because you have no way to know for sure.
When in doubt...
