So I have a replacement DNA coming in and I tried going through my Google account to see what pictures were on there. Only about half of them are on there, so I thought I could ask her. What's the best way to back up all of my pictures to a file and put it back onto my new phone with ease and have it the same way it was before.

If you want it the same way it was before, you're going to have to recreate the folder structure of the phone in your computer. The easiest way isn't very easy.
There's no easy way to take pictures from all over one phone and put them all into another phone in exactly the same structure.
You could copy the DCIM folders from both internal and external storage, but there's no guaranty that there aren't pictures in other places in your phone.
If you always had every important file backed up (which you should - did you know that cellphones get stolen and broken?), the easiest way would be to restore the backup to the new phone.
