The Photos page on the website or the tab in the app will display all image files in your account. There is no option to disable this for certain file types or to exclude certain folders. It simply displays ALL images from your account.
So this request was already asked in another thread but it was closed (marked solved? yikes) basically with the answer "you aren't using dropbox the way we want you to". Not the best customer service response IMO, but my use case is, I think, defensibly exactly why this is a good feature.
Feature Request: On mobile give us the opportunity to either filter folders from view entirely or at least select specific folders to include in the photos view.
I have over 2 decades of family photos in my dropbox account. My camera uploads go there, all that good stuff.
However, I also store application development stuff in other folders in my dropbox, so I have thousands of icons, web graphics, etc, in those folders. Unfortunately those pictures get included in the mobile photos view simply because they are image file types. I'd like to exclude those somehow so I can browse my family photos without having them all interlaced with icons and all that other stuff.

There's no way to exclude a folder from the Photo tab in the app, or on the Photos page on the website.

You can post a feature request in the Share an idea section of the forums.
