Q1. Will UK spouse visa application accept marriage certificate done in private ceremony?

A marriage certificate that is valid in the country where the marriage took place is usually accepted, provided both you and your new spouse were free to marry.

Q2. Do I have to use pictures of us to support our his application?

You have to prove subsisting relationship. Pictures alone is not sufficient.

Q3. Do we have to wait 2 years after the wedding to apply for his UK spouse visa?

No!!
