Welcome to the Apple Support Communities! Photos are certainly a prized possession with our iPhones and other mobile devices. Let's see if we can find those items together. So after using Photos on your Mac, 7 items came over and the rest seemed to have gone into hiding. There are a few places photos can be stored. They may be in an iTunes backup, they could certainly be in an iCloud backup (If iCloud photo library was disabled), in iCloud.com and your photos. Additionally, they may be hiding on the device itself under a different folder.
The first order of business, would be to locate one of your backups. Below is an article for finding your backups, be it with iCloud or iTunes. If you notice a recent backup from before the items went missing, you may certainly restore your device from that backup and the items may return. Note that photos originally synced to your iPhone from your computer using iTunes, may permanently remove these images if iCloud photo library is turned on.
Restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch from a backup
Best regards!
