From my previous reply: If iCloud Photos is turned on in a device then the same photos are not also included in iCloud Backup of that device.


Also see the following from What does iCloud back up? - Apple Support

Your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch backups only include information and settings stored on your device. They do not include information already stored in iCloud such as Contacts, Calendars, Bookmarks, Notes, Voice Memos3, Messages in iCloud, iCloud Photos, and shared photos.
