Popup images indexed as pages

Hello I have 2 small HTML websites using magnific popup to popup images. They also use isotope to filter the photos.

The 1st website is being indexed properly by Google. The different popup photos are not being indexed as pages on Google Search Console.
The page
Code:
https://kurtfrancois.com/photography.html

Here's a sample of the code:
Code:
<!-- Work Item (Lightbox) --> <li class="work-item mix daylandscape"><a href="images/photography/006-belle-mare-beach.jpg" class="work-lightbox-link mfp-image"> <div class="work-img"><img src="images/photography/006-belle-mare-beach-tb.jpg" alt="Black and White HDR photo of the remaining of roots at Belle Mare Plage beach" /></div> <div class="work-intro"> <h3 class="work-title">Belle Mare Plage beach</h3><div class="work-descr">Black and White HDR photo of the remaining of roots at Belle Mare Plage beach </div></div></a></li><!-- End Work Item -->

The 2nd website is as the 1st website but talking about another topic. It has all photos being crawled as pages on Google Search Console with status "Crawl - currently not indexed"
The page
Code:
https://boudoirphotography.mu/images/photography/nude/nude-photography-10.webp

Here's a sample of the code:
Code:
<li class="work-item mix classic-seminude"><a href="images/photography/nude/nude-photography-01.webp" class="work-lightbox-link mfp-image"> <div class="work-img"><img src="images/photography/nude/nude-photography-01-tb.webp" alt="Close up nude photography of Mauritian model standing up and hiding her tits with her hands" /></div> <div class="work-intro"> <h3 class="work-title">Seminude boudoir</h3><p class="work-descr">A close-up photo capturing a Mauritian model standing, her hands delicately covering her chest.</p></div></a></li>

As such it seems that Google provides low value to its HTML pages. Should I change the way the code is ? Is it because am using webp instead of jpg ? I guess no but I can't find where is the issue.
 
An update:

I've seen somewhere people having similar issues. In order for the images not be crawled / indexed by Google as pages, I have temporarily removed theses URLs in GSC > 'Temporary remove URLs'. However not sure if it's a good idea.
