Photo Transfer

Only some of my photos are transferring from my (older) iPhone 6 to my (new) MacBook Air. What do I need to do to get the remaining photos to my laptop? Thanks!

Set up both devices to use the same Apple ID and enable iCloud on both iPhone and MacBook Air. They will sync back and forth, example photos on iCloud from iPhone will automatic sync to Photos App on MBA

Thanks...is there a way without using iCloud? Just trying to minimize using cloud space because many of the pictures were taken several years ago and I just would like them on my laptop; they were more than likely transferred from previous phone.
