When you open the browser, and click on the photos in the media section (left hand side bar) make sure photos is selected top right instead of photo booth - as shown in screenshot.


If photos does not show, make sure your photo library is set as the system photo library in Photos preferences panel. See second screenshot. The button should be greyed out as shown - if it is not, then click it.
