So, I have my photos automatically upload to iCloud for backup.

Is there a known way, please, to prevent some photos from being uploaded if they are placed in a particular folder.

I have not been able to find a solution that works.

I am aware that there is a "Hidden Photos" option, and my understanding is that it only stops photos from being shown in search results etc as opposed to stopping them from being uploaded/backed up.

For clarification, these concern photos which are of whiteboards and documents (mainly financially based) which I do not wish to send anywhere outside of my iPhone.
