Locking photos

On my iPhone 13 it has the option to take photos without using face recognition. Is there a way to make it so I can not take photos from the Lock Screen

iPhone 13, iOS 17

No. Photos and Flashlight cannot be removed from the Lock screen (until iOS 18 is released). However, photos other than ones taken while the phone is locked cannot be viewed from the lock screen, and even those cannot be viewed if the phone is unlocked, then locked.
