If you need IE users to download image, you should have a look at [Content-Disposition](https://www.iana.org/assignments/cont-disp/cont-disp.xhtml) HTTP header — Thum Choon Tat, Dec 15 '17 at 05:57

You are missing href attribute in tag.

I have checked with below code working:

<a href="" download="<?php echo $photo['photo_link']; ?>"  title="ImageName">
<img alt="ImageName" src="uploads/category/<?php echo $photo['photo_link']; ?>">
</a>

Please see following link for your reference: href image link download on click

</a>
