Categories not working as expected with custom post type

You need to add your custom post type to your WP_Query call:

$args = array('category_name' => 'featured',
              'post_type' => array ('post','Photos'),
               posts_per_page' => 20);
$the_query = new WP_Query($args);
//continue with your loop
