Hi 2LCrazy,
To make sure we're on the same page, photos you take on your iPhone don't automatically show up on your Mac?
If so, we'd recommend making sure iCloud Photos is still enabled.
"On your Mac
- Choose Apple menu > System Settings or choose Apple menu > System Preferences.
- Click Apple ID.
- Click iCloud in the sidebar, then select Photos.
- Click the switch next to Sync this Mac. "
If you needed to toggle iCloud Photos on, it may take some time for new photos to sync over to the Mac, we'd recommend leaving it on and plugged in while connected to Wi-Fi. It will update your photos in the background.
Cheers!
