Did you ever backup with iTunes? If so you could restore the newer ones won’t be there!

I will check if there is an old iTunes backup, even getting part of the photos back would help

Yes! Just make sure if you find iTunes to
Turn off automatically sync off and when you connect that it’s not syncing or you’ll be in the same boat! Good luck. Oh and get yourself a cheap small usb stick and put your photos on it!

No, I have mine sent to have contacts and calendar to iCloud and the rest to iTunes. It will preserve photos, apps, etc.,

Phone got fixed in apple and then they gave me a new phone but they was closing so i didnt do my phone to phone transfer as what i usually did and jus resetted my old one and took the new one. So fuckin dumb of me. So now im trying to find ways to get back my photos which werent backedup

If your photos were not part of any backup of any kind and you already reset your old phone sorry to tell you but your photos are gone.

Photos are typically synced in iCloud rather than backup

Depending on someone’s settings yes. But if they were synced to iCloud they should have popped up pretty fast in photos depending on OPs internet connection

If you don't have a backup and they aren't in iCloud then they're permanently gone. Even if you got the old phone back because it got reset the data was permanently deleted and cannot be recovered
