iphone doesn't show up in Photos app

Not sure what happened, but now, when I open Photos and connect my iphone 8, my iphone does not show up and I do not have the option to import photos from my phone. I have rebooted my phone and restarted my MacPro and still nothing. It's been a while since I last downloaded photos (maybe 2 months). Any help would be appreciated.

iPhone 8, iOS 11.3

Check your iCloud settings on the phone - you probably have iCloud Photo Library enabled on the iPhone and if you do you can not manually import the photos - you either need ICPL enabled on the IOS device and the Mac onr not on the IOS device
