Hello rambod256,


If the device was erased and the photos were not being synced by iCloud or stored in an iCloud/computer backup then there would not be a way of recovering them unfortunately.

Automatically back up with iCloud Backup
1. Go to Settings > [your name] > iCloud > iCloud Backup and make sure that Back Up This [Device] is turned on.
2. Connect your device to a power source.
3. Connect your device to a Wi-Fi network.
4. Make sure that your device's screen is locked.
5. If you get an alert that you don't have enough iCloud storage space to complete the backup, follow the onscreen steps to buy more iCloud storage.


Take care.
