You need to sync again with iTunes but change the settings on the Photos page of iTunes to not include the album(s) that you don't want on the phone. See the information below from Keep your photos safely stored and up to date on all your devices - Apple Support
If you don't want the synced photos on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch anymore, turn off syncing in iTunes and they'll be removed from your device. You can turn off syncing for some of your photo albums or all of them at once.
Stop syncing some albums
- Open iTunes on your computer and connect your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.
- Click on the device icon in iTunes.
- Click Photos.
- Choose "Selected albums" and deselect the albums or collections that you want to stop syncing.
- Click Apply.
Stop syncing all photos
- Open iTunes on your computer and connect your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.
- Click on the device icon in iTunes.
- Click Photos.
- Deselect "Sync Photos" then click "Remove photos."
- Click Apply.
