It appears that you cannot iframe individual Google Photos into websites.
Here is how to do it instead - by generating a different URL that Google uses on its back end. Photo appears downgraded somewhat.

Here is a way to embed Google albums -

These all appear to be 3rd party apps. The only way to embed Google Photos manually seems to be to add them to your Drive first - [1]. It seems that Google Photos limits the embed possibility? ot really, there is a way to do it manually, below.
Manual Route
This procedure works, from [2].
You have to go through the steps to generate an 'image address'. Then you just use this 'image address' with <html><a href=" "> <img src=" " /> </a></html>
Steps
- Open your preferred photo in Google Photos and click on "Share," then "Create Link" to get a shareable link for that image.
- Copy the link and open a new browser tab.
- Paste the link address into the new browser window. This will bring you to a new shared album with just that photo in it.
- Click the image to zoom in and right-click on the image.
- Select "Copy image address" from the menu.
- You now have your embed link, but this must be formatted with the correct HTML.
