Have you tried Syncthing? It's not the same as Google Photos, but I think it's one of the best file synchronization software yet. I don't use it to sync my photos, though, I use it for syncing my markdown notes.

Adding support for Syncthing. It is the closest thing to Dropbox that I've found self-hosted. And that's perfect for syncing photos to my server. Also as a plus, I can then easily transfer large files from my server to my phone while away! It's just the syncing part. I am still looking for a good album solution.
