Photos Autotag

Is there a way to disable the photo auto-tag for just one particular directory in the library? I don’t want to create a separate library but I have a few photos I only have low-res copies of, I want to be able to view them in Plex, but I want to stop seeing several hundreds lines of of “below minimum pixel count” errors in the logs everytime it does an auto-scan.

I know there’s .plexignore but then I wouldn’t be able to view the pictures in the client apps.
