If I delete photos from my iPhoto library on my macbook, will I still have them on my iPhone?

I'm logged onto my macbook under my wife's profile, and I'm about to delete all the photos that are stored on my iphoto on my macbook, but I don't want to delete them from my wife's iphone. I've changed the settings on iphoto so they no longer auto import, but want to clear some disk space.

Thanks

MacBook, OS X Mavericks (10.9.1)

If they are in the camera roll on the iPhone then deleting on the Mac will ahve no effect on them - if they are in your PhotoStream and you delete form PhotoStream on teh Mac they will be deleted from PS everywhere - if they are in an event on the Mac then deleting has not effect on yoru iphone
