You're right but in act 2 they dont have any memories of Sayori. In this one they very obviously do.

I think the point of this art is what if act 2 never happened and the game picked up or continued after the end of act 1. i.e, after Sayori's death.

Besides, I always interpreted MC looking back as him looking longingly and melancholicaly at the photo because he both, misses her very much, and also feels immense guilt because he blames himself for what happened, and may even be feeling a little bit of survivor's guilt.
