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 to make mo money.

Manual Route

  1. Right Click on individual picture, and click on "get image address"
  2. Follow standard embed procedure in HTML. Such as https://photos.fife.usercontent.google.com/pw/AP1GczNAzfVPHU9wkkYbsyoedZlcl0fva96BT5k__77EixYSeIUCGDl7L4NsdA=w1579-h888-s-no-gm?authuser=0


  1. Use, for example - <img src="images/dinosaur.jpg" alt="Dinosaur" />
