I have a button on my dock that does so, but haven't had a desire to set it as a hotkey, since I don't use one except for "Fn + F5" to set my laptop in sleep mode.
The target is: "C:\WINDOWS\system32\cmd.exe"
The argument is: "/C start C:\WINDOWS\system32\GPhotos.scr /c /menustart"
Besides that, I know that if I wanted to set it as a hotkey, there are a couple independent programs that allow you to set virtually anything as a hotkey, though I'm not sure which percentage of them are free.
I believe there is this site on which on I found my ID3 Tag Editor which has the program that could help you. Now that I check the link, it seems that the "Keyboard Tweaker" is what you are looking for exactly.

I also took the time search Help & Support, and this what they state:

To specify shortcut keys for specific programs
Before beginning this procedure, please refer to the documentation that came with the program to verify a shortcut was installed.
1. Open My Computer.
2. Locate the program file (.exe) or the program's shortcut icon. Right-click the program file or shortcut, and then click Properties.
3. Click the Program tab for an MS-DOS program or the Shortcut tab for a Windows program.
4. With the cursor in the Shortcut key box, select the keyboard key you want to use in combination with CTRL+ALT. Shortcut keys automatically start with CTRL+ALT. The Shortcut key box will display None until you select the key and then the box will display Ctrl+Alt+the key you selected. You cannot use the ESC, ENTER, TAB, SPACEBAR, PRINT SCREEN, SHIFT, or BACKSPACE keys.
Notes
- To open My Computer, click Start, and then click My Computer.
- Once you assign a shortcut key combination for a specific program, you will not be able to use that key combination with other programs. For a list of shortcut keys used by this version of Windows, click Related Topics.
- If you forget the key combination for your shortcut, you can follow steps 2 through 3 and review your shortcut keys.
- Using shortcut keys to open programs can often be simpler than opening programs using a pointing device, especially when working on portable computers.

See which of the above aids you. Google Photos Screensaver is cool and being able to start it up remotely is very handy to both you & me, it seems.
