    The answer isn't that cut and dried without more information. It depends on what you were using as far as Photo storage is concerned. If you are using iCloud Photo library and you deleted them from the phone, they are gone. If the photos were deleted from your Camera Roll in the Photos app, you may be able to find them in the Recently Deleted Album. If the photos are not in the recently deleted album, but they are in a backup, you can restore the backup and recover the photos.

    Situation 1: iPhone 6, iPhone 6 Plus or any other iPhone running in iOS 8 meanwhile it has taken less 30 since the photos are deleted.

     

    Situation 2: The operating system of iPhone is not iOS 8 or it has been more than 30 days since you removed the photos on iPhone.

     

    If the later, just check this article How to Recover Deleted Photos on iPhone. If not, what you need to do is following this guide to restore your deleted photos from iPhone as easy as turning one’s hand over.

     

    Quite evidently, the second solution is more suitable for you.
