You may have opened a different Photos Library than before.

check the location of the Photos Library you are currently using. You can see the path to your current Photos Library in the Photos > Preferences > General at the top of the panel. Is it the correct Library? If not, quit Photos, then double click the corr3ctblibrary that you have previously used.
