Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities!
I understand from your question that you would like to to import photos from your iPhone to Photos on your Mac, but Photos doesn’t appear to see any photos that are on your iPhone. Were all of the photos you are trying to import taken on the iPhone or were they synced to your iPhone from a different device?
The attached article explains that you can’t import photos or videos that were synced from iTunes which could explain this behavior.

You may also be using or choose to use iCloud Photo Library. This service will keep all of your photos up to date across all of your devices. For more information about iCloud Photo Library, please read over the next article.

Yes, all the photos were taken on the iPhone 6. On the phone, the Camera Roll shows 26 pix, but neither Photos nor Image Capture sees any pix on the phone. This is something new; I've been importing pix from my my phone for years. How can I fix this?
Thanks,
Robert
