I just discovered that when I want to sharing photos, it take me here:

For safety purposes, my name is colored over.
I want to send some of my photos on a digital storage space to make more room on my S22 Ultra, and I don't know how to turn quick share off, because sharing even folder takes me directly to quick share instead of letting me choose. What do I do?

@Maobi Well you can't turn it off completely. What you can do is make it so no one else can send to you. Go to phone settings -> Connected devices -> Quick Share. Click on Who can share with you. Set it to No one. 

"I want to send some of my photos on a digital storage space" ... I'm not sure what that means. If you want to put items on the cloud or a flash drive, use My Files.

But how do I bypass it when sharing 30 photos?

@Maobi After clicking the share icon in Gallery, don't click Quick Share. Instead click on the icon for your cloud service (such as Drive for Google, or OneDrive for Microsoft, etc.).

@Maobi when you click on a photo and then click the share icon in Gallery, it should take you to a screen with a row of icons along the bottom. The first icon to the left is Quick Share. Don't click that. You can swipe that row of icons to the left and you will see a "More" button.

@Maobi I would suggest that you try wiping the device cache partition. You may have some corrupted cache value somewhere.

@Maobi Not sure what is going on but I recommend that you use My Files to move or copy those photos to your cloud storage.
