When I attempt to open up my iPhoto is has a text window that opens and says "Last login: Thu Feb 26 20:59:01 on ttys000 Brents-MacBook-Air:iPhoto Library.photolibrary brentthomas$"....I am a little nervous to where my photos are at. Anyone know whats going on? Trying to backup my iphone 6 to my macbook air.

What's happened here is that for some reason the computer thinks your Library is a Terminal prompt. This can be undone quite easily but I'm not sure how. I'd suggest you ask on the Using Mac OS X forum for whatever version of the OS you have.

"Last login: Thu Feb 26 20:59:01 on ttys000 Brents-MacBook-Air:iPhoto Library.photolibrary brentthomas$"...

Try the following:

Select your iPhoto Library in the Finder. By default it should be in your Pictures folder.
Use the command "File >Get Info" or press the key combination ⌘I
In the Info panel, that will pop up click the disclosure triangle for "Open with" and set this to "iPhoto.app".
Click the "Change All...." button as well.

This will change the document type of your library to be opened by iPhoto.
