React Native svg clip path on image not working

Question

Trying to clip an Image component with an svg ClipPath is proving problematic. I can clip a Rect no problem, but when I replace the Rect with an Image, nothing shows up.

octogon.points = "80,0.3 23.6,23.6 0.3,80 23.6,136.4 80,159.7 136.4,136.4 159.7,80 136.4,2 3.6";

props.photoUri = "file:///data/user/0/host.exp.exponent/cache/ExperienceData/%2540anonymous%252Fhalt-c46ef35c-1897-441e-840e-28147c0de5a9/ImagePicker/d68a7ddd-807e-4d26-95c2-bd47ddca803e.jpg"

<View style={styles.container}>
    <Svg width={160} height={160} viewBox={`0 0 160 160`}>
        <Defs>
            <ClipPath id="clip">
                <Polygon points={octogon.points} />
            </ClipPath>
        </Defs>
        {/* <Rect x="0" y="0" width="160" height="160" fill="red" clipPath="#clip" /> */}
        <Image x="0" y="0" width="160" height="160" source={{ uri: props.photoUri }} clipPath="#clip" />
    </Svg>
</View>

The commented out Rect worked as intended and creates a red octogon. The Image returns blank.

I feel like I'm overlooking something simple. Any help is appreciated.

Answering my own question because I'm an idiot and hopefully it will help someone in the future. Be mindful of which components you are importing. I was using Image from 'react-native' instead of Image from 'react-native-svg'.

Once I swapped it over and changed source={{ uri: props.photoUri }} to href={{ uri: props.photoUri }}, it started working.
