Not natively, but there are third-party apps in the iTunes Store that say they have password features. Not having tried any of them I can't make any specific recommendations.

There is no way to password protect photos on iPhones. Why would you need this when you should be passcode locking the entire phone?
You can remove photos from Camera Roll by connectint to a computer with a photo import app, importing them to that app and deleting from Camera Roll (most apps will do this). The photos are no longer on the phone at all. You can sycn them back to the phone in a new folder, but not password protected.
Okay so I have to sync my photos to a computer. Then delete from my cameral roll (which will also delete from my albums). Then re-sync and put the photos back into the albums?
From the description of Lock-My-Photos app:
"NOTE:
Due to Apple’s restrictions, we cannot delete photos from the native Photos app. You must delete them yourself, after importing them into Photo Safe, if you want to protect those pictures from prying eyes."
Note that "Photo Safe" is a web site.

When you resync, you first will recreate albums. The photos synced back to the phone can no longer be deleted on the phone itself unlike the albums you create on the phone with iOS 5.
Yes this is there are apps for it where u put the photos in the app and u put a code so no one will be able to see them unless they know the code
There post is almost 3 years old, don't think they waited around. They also may not be able to read your text speak and you gave no definitive useful information.
