Please refer to the FAQ:

Q: I don't see camera snapshots in the Home app, just the Nest/Google logo. Why?

A: The SDM API does not have any method for getting a camera snapshot on demand, only when an event occurs. The Nest logo is used as a placeholder for first generation cameras, while the Google logo is used for second generation cameras. If an event occurred in the last few seconds you will likely see an image.
