2 of the 9 registrars whose .photos pricing we have verified price it flat, first year the same as every renewal, while the other 7 discount year one (median renewal 2.4× the promotional price). Verified renewals run $24.01 to $63.98 a year.
A flat seller and a discounted one can look identical in year one and differ sharply by year three, so compare the renewal or the multi-year total.
