Hopefully you made backups because the only way to unlock the phone is to reset it which will wipe out any data that was on it. Apple will not restore it for you as mentioned in the previous post
Once you reset it, you can restore your data from a backup.
If you forgot the passcode on your iPhone, or your iPhone is disabled or unavailable -

Having proof of purchase doesn't matter, Apple will not unlock a disabled phone for you.
Did you make backups, this will be the only way to recover your photos.
Follow the instructions the I or TheLittles posted, that is the only way to unlock your phone.

Troubleshooting a Locked iPhone:
Seems you have a locked iPhone. So, contact Apple Support. Refer to the following...
Hold It Right There!:
Enter the passcode incorrectly too many times, and you'd likely be locked out for good. So, hold it right there, and refer to this link: If you Forgot the Passcode on your iPad, or your iPad is Disabled - Apple Support. It would be the one you've always entered. If you do not know it, then look for it in a location you may have stored it in.
Being Locked Out...
Have any Proof of Purchase?
Unless you have the original packaging and receipt, you may be out of luck. If you do have it, however, then take this to an Apple Store, or an AASP (Apple Authorized Service Provider)! and they may be able to restore it. The reason for this blockage is all about Security & Privacy.
Apple Contact Info:
Right. I have proof it is in fact mine, and the Home Screen photo is still viewable in the background. Which I have stored on my current phone too. I logged into i tunes and have it plugged in to open through my computer. Still no luck.
Also the issue was I only used 4 # passcodes. When I tried to restart it a few days ago it now asks for a 6 # passcode. Which I never had.
