Open photos from the launchpad or the applications folder. The icon will appear in the dock. Right click the icon and select "options>keep in dock"

Did you just install a system upgrade? If you saved an alias to Photos on your Desktop it might have been removed, because it applied to an earlier version of Photos. Using the Dock is safer.
