EA has announced a fix for this coming with the patch in February. I recommend you hold up on taking photos until then.

The funeral and graduation portraits will be gone unless you have an older save, and even if you try to save them on the gallery they are still black when you place them in the current save. I don't want to be mean, but I have been trying for a year to avoid these image-related bugs and I know that it is an old platform for such a complex game and the people are trying to solve all the bugs, but I am really tired to try and keep my save alive. This is the first time I didn't make a save and my older save is from December, so I have two options now: to lose my progress since December or to accept that every funeral and graduation photo I have had so far is lost.
As I have written elsewhere this is unfortunately correct. The reason why they can not be restored is because they are saved as black in the screenshots folder. Which is why I recommended not to take photos until this is finally fixed by EA.
No they are not saved black, they simply are not saved, the images are not committed to the save file and with a broken link the photo objects just show black.
People with PCs and Sims4Studio and an older copy of their save with all the photos intact can restore them, but its not worth trying to do that until EA really properly fixes this problem.
