Best Answer
Open the Photos app, go File -> Import, and navigate to the folder with the photos.
If the photos can't be imported using the Import feature in Photos and are in an iPhoto library, you could first open the library with iPhoto, go File -> Export, and export the originals. They could then be imported using the Photos app.
