Hi bvlauraa,

Welcome to the Apple Community.


Wondering what you are doing, or trying to do, to expect the Photos ( from iPhone, or iCloud?) to appear on your Mac:

eg sync photos or import photos ?

or

Maybe the Photos are on iCloud but Mac is not turned on to sync the photos ?

or

Maybe the Photos that are usually on the Mac are missing ?


Here are a few articles from Apple support that may, or may not help.

You might want to see if any article in particular suits your situation,.
