Syncing moved files

Hi all,
I use rsync to keep an off-site backup of my photographs.
I dump from my camera everything into a tmp/ directory, which I then
clean and move gradually all pictures into the right directory
(Vacations/, for example).
But rsync does not know that I moved an identical picture from tmp/ to
Vacations/, it transfers the whole file, and deletes the one that was in
tmp/, even though a local move might have done it.
Is there a way that rsync could, for all known files, sync paths instead
of file content whenever local and remote files are identical (using
sha1 or md5)?
