Your iPhone 8 is syncing pictures that you are taking with your iPhone through iCloud. You can turn this feature OFF on your iPhone 8 by opening Settings 👉 Apple ID (Your Name at Top) ➡️ iCloud ➡️ Photos: Set this switch to OFF. Once you do this then photos will stop syncing between your iPhone 8 and your new iPhone. Nothing will be deleted on either of the iPhones.
