This is not just image processing. Its also image size reduction using mordern formats like webp on the fly. So If the front end asks for a image which is stored as 1024x768 on s3 with a new size as 800x600 then the lambda service should convert the image to 800x600, reduce the image quality and send to frontend there by reducing the image file size. I have done this using backend code for ecommerce app. Where the product listing image sizes where reduced to like 30-50KB from 150KB. making the list images load pretty fast.
