If you had enabled iCloud Photos then the Photos are not backed up.


iCloud backup doesn’t include information that is synced and stored in iCloud, like Contacts, Calendars, Bookmarks, Mail, Notes, Voice Memosshared photosiCloud Photos*, Health data, call history and files you store in iCloud Drive.



*-If you had turned on iCloud Photos & Messages on iCloud, your content is automatically stored in iCloud and is available on all devices that use the same Apple ID
