Is it correct to say when was this photo taken?
Here, the first sentence is correct. If you want to use the second sentence then you’ll have to change it to “when was this photo taken” or “when this photo was taken”. Here one thing is to be remembered. “Has been taken” never comes in a sentence if it starts with “when”.

“By myself” implies that you were alone when you took the photo, and/or you did it without help. “By me” simply means, “I took the photo” (and this is the most common way to say it).
What does “the first pictures I took of you” mean?

Is “when you took this photo” a verb or a clause?
Technically they’re just clauses because they are subordinate and can’t stand alone. However, they both make sense as clauses but they don’t mean the same thing. “When you took this photo” is describing the time something happened. For example, “When you took this photo, you accidentally dropped my camera.”
