Accessing photos on iPhone 6 with fried touch chip

Well the above title says it all, tried to repair my iphone 6 Plus back when it was the newest iPhone - that led me to shorting the pins out for the digitizer thus ruining the chip in control of touch or the connector itself. I verified this by buying a new replacement screen and installed it very carefully and still no touch control. This has led the phone to be on standby until I found the time and tools for me to unlock it with a normal keyboard which happened today 4 years later. But to my greatest disappointment I need to press trust this computer to get my pictures over to my mac.

So Im asking this question since I'm out of options for now

Do I have other possibilities or are my Highschool photos forever lost?

If nothing else i'm prepared to get the phone to someone who can desolder the memory chips and read the data directly from it. Just to put into perspective how important it is I get these photos. Thanks in advance!
