This may be a corruption in your Library. Have you tried to repair the Photos Library? To rebuild your Library, close Photos and re-launch by option-command-clicking the app icon. A screen (sometimes hidden behind other windows) will appear asking if you would like to repair the Library-- click "Repair" and see if that works.
Other things to try include
Start up your Mac in safe mode - Apple Support
One of these steps may fix the problem, but their failure to work is also diagnostic.
