If you were syncing with iCloud, any photo available to you is at iCloud.com or on device. If you were not syncing then any photo would be part of your device backup instead and restored when you restore the backup.
As muguy says, "iCloud Backup" doesn't backup things twice. So if you were using iCloud Photos, those pictures should be available in the Photos section at iCloud.com. You should use Safari to look there. If you had iCloud Photos turned on, then if may take awhile for all the pictures to transfer. You mention an iPad -- are your pictures there?
I’ve already checked it’s not there. I am missing over 500 photos but I am confused as to why because I backed it up before resetting my phone! I was sure to back it up & apparently I did because I have photos from May 2020 - May 2025 but I am missing photos from March 4,2025-April 20, 2025!!

Its a gap the photos jump from March 4 to April 21 I have everything before and after those dates but no photos from in between those dates.
How to recover missing photos from iCloud backup?
