there.

I just purchased a IPad Pro today and set it all up.

All the photos I had on my iphone were transferred onto the iPad. Which I didn’t want so I deleted them off the iPad and then deleted them again form the recently deleted folder.

But I didn’t realise that this would delete them off all of my Apple devices and I’ve just lost 6 years of photos.

Is there anyway of getting me back?

I checked iCloud but there weren’t any photos on there.

iPhone 12 Pro Max, iOS 15

Unfortunately not. Once they’re deleted from the recently deleted album they can’t be recovered. ICloud is a syncing service. You can turn it off on individual devices or turn it off on all devices, and have iCloud back them up.
