Lost photos

i was wanting to print photos from phone, so uploaded to Shutterfly acct. and my daughter sent all photos to deleted file and CLEARED my photos from photo app. Not all the photos uploaded and now I cannot find them and am hoping they are not completely lost. I've tried to find help online but it goes no further than the deleted spot for photos to be retrieved. I'm not savvy with iCloud and don't know if they might be there. If you can help I would appreciate it
