If the photos are synced on, you need to use a computer to unsync them.

Also, if you give the iPhone to your niece with purchases on there still tied to your ID she won't be able to update them and it may cause her other issues later. It is probably not a good idea to do that. The best thing to do would be to erase the iphone. You can then send her the photos she wants and she can sync them on the phone using her own Apple ID. -AJ
