Can anyone identify with me. By accident I deleted two very very special photos from my phone. I can't keep kicking myself. My life is ruined.

Many phone pics get uploaded to one cloud or another. Look into that.

There are lots of links like this.

You made a mistake, your life is not ruined, troubled perhaps but not ruined. They were just pictures, you still have the memories.

You could be able to restore or recover them if you have not taken any more photos since you deleted them.
Any file recovery system or program should be able to undelete them.

Try this, I deleted a very important photo from my sd card and got it back with "recuva". Above link says it works on cell phones, best of luck!

I don't know what phone you have but I have an iPhone 6 with iOS 8.2x. In my photo section there's a list of "Recently Deleted."

Otherwise, I'd bring it to your provider's store and see if one of their geniuses can recover it.

One time I accidentally deleted my wife. The dirty clothes and dishes piled up and I got really hungry!
So I cried and cried and called her ten times a day. And finally she became undeleted!! :lol:

Never send a phone to do a camera's job.

dod the photos get saved to an sd or microsd card on your phone?

I was going to suggest the very same solution.

By chance had you lately synced the phone with your computer? If so it'll be there for a restore.

I know how you feel, I've lost some of the best shots I've ever made over time through carelessness, and stupidity. Back up your photos in different places if they're precious.
