This article will be a good resource for you. It will walk you through the necessary steps to resolve the issue.

Change the wallpaper on iPhone


Set a Live Photo as wallpaper for the Lock screen
When you set a Live Photo as wallpaper, touch and hold the Lock screen to play the Live Photo—on all iPhone models except iPhone SE (1st generation).
Go to Settings  > Wallpaper > Choose a New Wallpaper.
Do one of the following:
Tap Live, then choose a Live Photo.
Tap your Live Photos album, then choose a Live Photo (you may need to wait for it to download).
Tap Set, then choose Set Lock Screen or Set Both.


I hope this is able to resolve your issue. If you have any more questions or this does not resolve your issue, please reach back out on the thread!
