iPhone not automatically connecting to Mac

My iPhone won’t connect automatically to my MAc when I connect via USB. It previously did and asked to download photos etc, but now isn’t even recognized by the Mac. I updated all available updates but it didn’t make any difference. Any suggestions? Something in settings?
