photos on macbook not updating

All of a sudden my photos on MacBook aren't updating. It's been a week. Lots of pics taken on my phone, but not showing up in Photos.

Hi


Double check photos preferences


1 - Library is system library (circled button should be greyed out - if not, click it.


2 - iCloud settings are as shown.


3 - Has somthing triggered a full new sync (Eg a macos update) - if so, this could time some time for a large libray and may stop new photos syncing until it is complete - check sync status at the bottom of the all photos view...
