Back up photos to iCloud

I currently have several Apple devices and I wanted to back up pictures from one device which I had never done before. However, the images in this one device are not backing up after I did all of the steps of how to back up images to iCloud and instead, it is uploading 30,000 items I have in my iCloud pictures from other devices. Any advice on what I should do? As to how to back up without needing to upload the 30,000 pictures on my iCloud?

This is what iCloud does, i.e. it syncs your photos (or other data) across all of your devices.
