The images are in a subfolder named the same as the markdown file (the name of the Bear note).

Exporting with the base64 option on should not generate a link to a file, but an inline representation of the image inside the MD file.
However, I don’t expect the result to report (null) as the image data. Can you drag out the attachment from Bear to your Desktop? If you export without the base64 option, does the attachment get exported correctly?
