The camera install looks good. Congratulations on your handiwork...

In your last photo, of the rear of the trailer, there's no cover on the spare tire. Did you get one and just not yet install it, or ???

It's not a "crisis" but you'll be money ahead by keeping the sun, heat, UV away from the spare tire. Since it isn't "flexing down the road" it won't be releasing the rubber oils like the tires that are on the road. It will "dry out and start to crack much sooner than the ones on the ground. If you have a cover, it'll help preserve the tire. If you don't, ask the dealer. Keystone ships all their trailers with a "CHEAP" tan cover that says "Keystone RV" on it. If you have to buy one, some "tire experts" recommend a white cover to avoid the heat saturation caused by black covers.

Anyway, the trailer's looking good. Enjoy your first outing, I'm sure you're excited...
