How did your photos get lost, Pics27Photo?
The Photos.app is only offering one safety line for photos, the Recently Deleted album. If the photos are no longer in Recently deleted, you have to fall back on your own backups to recover accidentally deleted items, see: If you're missing photos or videos in the Photos app - Apple Support
Have you checked, if the photos are just hidden or in the Hidden album, or excluded by filter? Sometimes photos are appearing to be missing, if the collections are sorted differently than expected.
