If you are not comfortable confronting her write a letter or a quick note to inform her of what you know and if you want to avoid the drama block her on everything till you are ready
It's fair to break up for boundaries not being stuck to. You want two forms of protection and it's not being met.
However, it's 100% fair for her to not want to use female birth control. Thank god I'm in premature menopause and don't need to worry about periods or pregnancy.
Hormonal birth control has a book's worth of side effects, and the negative impacts on a woman's body/health. Such as bleeding between periods, weight gain, migraines, allergic reactions, decreased sex drive, mood changes (mild to severe). More serious complications are blood clots (experienced this twice), high blood pressure, and increased breast/cervical cancer risks. Plus, certain medications (like antibiotics, anticonvulsants, etc.) can interfere with the birth control and make them less effective!
Non-hormonal birth control, like the copper IUD, also have negative side effects; such as heavier bleeding, allergic reactions, severe pain. Not to mention, the more serious complications of it puncturing through the uterine wall, falling out of the uterus or infection.

And how do I get him to be willing to take a picture together in the future?
You ask him. If it's important to you he should agree. Why does he refuse?
so what would be a good gift to get for him?
What does he like? I've never met the guy but you've been dating for a year. Sports/concert tickets? Something related to a hobby?
But tbh… I wouldn't spend too much if this relationship is going to shit
