You're asking a profound question about perception; even someone looking at you doesn't see your "true image"; their brain and visual cortex create an image - but its a philosophical problem as to whether the image is truly you. A mirror, by definition, produces a mirror image - so you can't really call that a true image. A photograph is, essentially, a recording of how something is lit so I'd also say that isn't a true image either.

How can you identify the three types of mirrors without touching?

In the plane mirror, our image will be seen as same size of us and erect. In case of concave mirror, our image will be inverted. This is because concave mirror forms real, inverted image when object is placed behind the focus of the mirror. In case of convex mirror, the size of the image will be diminished, or smaller than us and the image will be erect too. This is because the image formed is virtual and erect.

To take a clear picture of an image in a mirror should the camera be focused on the image or the mirror?

An image in a mirror is a "virtual" image which takes on certain characteristics. One of these characteristics is that the apparent distance is equal to the distance from the observer to the mirror plus the distance from the mirror to the subject. If the observer and subject are the same, then the apparent distance is twice that of the subject to the mirror. If the observer is 3 feet from the mirror and the subject is 20 feet away, the apparent distance is 23 feet. If you focus on the subject and have distance markings on your lens, you can prove this to yourself.

How does the image in a plane mirror differ form the object?

I'm assuming you are referring to a flat mirror. The image in a flat mirror is the reverse of what is casting the reflection. To test this, stand in front of a mirror, and raise your right hand. The image in the mirror will actually be raising it's left hand. If you picture that image turning around to face the same way you're facing (so you're looking at it's back) the raised hand would be on the images left, and in the imagined scenario, on your left.
