Once a restrictions passcode is forgotten, the iPhone must be erased and set up as new.

Keeping your photos depends completely on where your photos are housed. If, for example, you use iCloud Photos, you will be able to retrieve them. If you only house them locally on the iPhone, they will be gone.
