Have you checked to see if you are both using the same Apple ID? That is the only way to automatically share all photos, even if you are sharing storage. See the following from Share an iCloud storage plan with your family - Apple Support


When you share a storage plan, your photos and documents stay private and everyone keeps using their own accounts with iCloud—just like when you have your own storage plan. You simply share the space available in the iCloud storage plan with your family members, so you only have one plan to manage.
