Did you install it for the same version of Python that your app is using?

I think that yes --> 

08:07 ~ $ python -m pip install Pillow
Defaulting to user installation because normal site-packages is not writeable
Looking in links: /usr/share/pip-wheels
Requirement already satisfied: Pillow in /usr/local/lib/python3.10/site-packages (9.0.0)

Your website is using a virtualenv; you'll need to start a Bash console in the virtualenv (use the link in the virtualenv section of the "Web" page to do that) and then run that command there.
