Hello ariella,
Unfortunately you cannot increase the storage capacity of the iPhone itself. You can, by using optimization, make better use of what it can hold. Read these documents for information about this:
What's the difference between device storage and iCloud storage? - "Learn the difference between your device and iCloud storage, ways to manage your space, and where to buy more if you run out." Click here --> https://support.apple.com/HT206504
Click on this link to learn how to optimize the storage actually on the device itself --> "How to check the storage on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch" - https://support.apple.com/HT201656 - "If your device is low on storage, iOS automatically optimizes its available space while installing an app, updating iOS, downloading music, recording videos, and more. To make more storage available, iOS can remove some of your items, like streamed music and videos, files in iCloud Drive, and parts of apps that aren't needed. It also removes temporary files and clears the cache on your device. iOS only removes items that can be downloaded again or that aren't needed anymore."
