Hi Adam. If the photos haven’t synced on their own between two devices ‘Photos’ folders, then:
Put the photos in a folder and zip them (right click - compress). Then try emailing the zip file to yourself using Mail and an iCloud.com ( or .mac or .me) email address(s). Apple handles the big files automatically. There are lots of other ways, e.g. Target Disk Mode on one device if you have the cable to connect the two macs together, perhaps others have better ideas. Good luck.
