Back-up all your photos from your old phone (on an external drive) and DISABLE iCloud sync. Then delete (not recommended, IMHO) all photos on iCloud (you can use your browser for this). This is if you want to use the same Apple ID.

Another option would be to not sync photos with iCloud on the new phone by going to Settings/Your Name, then iCloud, and turn photos syncing off. That would keep the older photos off the new phone.
