Personally I don't trust myself with self-hosting something as important as photos. It would probably be fine, but I'm willing to pay for someone else to manage the infrastructure.

    Backups. You should be taking regular backups whether it's you hosting or Google. If you are, there's really very little risk.

    You'll also have the images on the phone, which should remain long enough for the images automatically stored to get into backup storage. Personally, all my images upload from my phone automatically after I'm on WiFi for 10 minutes.
