How to back up pictures iCloud/iphone?

I remember about half a year ago I backed up all my stuff but only my photo stream pics saved meaning all other photons were deleted. So I put my stuff in albums now, I think that stuff is saved on iCloud. Am I correct? I'm about to back up and get a new iphone. Will all my albums be backed up?
