When you store your photos in iCloud, they aren't included as part of the backup.

iCloud photos Backup I backed up my iCloud account on my iPhone 11 before switching back to my iphoneXR, but none of the pictures I backed up are in my iCloud like they should be. My storage was full so I purchased iCloud+ so the pictures would fit but they are not anywhere on my iCloud now, why did they not back up? How do I go about getting those back if that is even possible?
