Where does Samsung Save contact photos?

So I'm trying to switch phones and would like to move over my contacts too.

Using the export function to export to SD card, the photos do come over, but in very very low pixelated detail.

Using the export function to export to sim card, obviously doesn't include the photos.

 

So I'd like to find those photos I've saved to my contacts and move them over to my new phone. 
Any ideas where they're located?

 

Phone model: Samsung Galaxy S7 SM-G930 Running Android 8.

Sync the contacts to google that way you'll get the normal res.

 

As for where probably deep in the app library and usually not in a known file
