Your Apple ID was seemingly compromised.

Fix that, as deletion of photos is a rounding error in the potential for damage after such a compromise.

Enable two-factor authentication, if that’s not already enabled.

As for your photos, check your backups, or check the iCloud recently-deleted album. See the section on recovering deleted photos here:

Depending on what happened here, the photos may well be gone.
