What do you mean by crawl their catalog?

Do you mean you want to get a list of all their products including all the details of each product, and do something with that? In that case, you could use Shopify's GraphQL Admin API

Yep you can get both images and descriptions, and more from querying product or products in GraphQL Admin API. 

 

Just make sure that when you define your scopes for your app, you include the correct access scopes such as read_products
