Connect your phone to your computer. If it’s Windows or a Mac with Mojave or older open iTunes. Go to iTunes Preferences and click on the Devices tab. This will list any backups you have on your computer.


Then on your phone go to Settings, tap on your name, then iCloud. Tap on Backup and it will list the most recent backup.


While in the same place look at the switch for photos. Is it on? If it is that is where your photos and videos came from. If it is off, turn it on and any photos in iCloud will sync to your phone.


You can also log in to https://icloud.com/photos and see what photos are stored in iCloud.
