Hi Self-help,
iCloud Photos keeps every photo and video you take in iCloud, so you can access your library from any device, anytime you want.
"If you need to save space on your device
iCloud Photos keeps all your photos and videos in their original, high-resolution version. To save storage space on your device, you can turn on Optimize Storage.
If you turn on Optimize Storage, iCloud Photos automatically manages the size of your library on your device. Your original photos and videos are stored in iCloud and space-saving versions are kept on your device. Your library is optimized only when you need space, starting with the photos and videos you access least. You can download the original photos and videos over Wi-Fi or cellular when you need them."
Set up and use iCloud Photos - Apple Support
It is also easy to enable:
"Make sure that you set up iCloud and sign in to iCloud with the same Apple ID on all of your devices. If you have a PC, you need Windows 7 or later and iCloud for Windows.
On your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
- Go to Settings > [your name].
- Tap iCloud.
- Tap Photos, then turn on iCloud Photos."
We hope this helps.
Cheers!
