Once you've defeated the "Recently Deleted" safety, there's not much you can do. You can see this:
If you're missing photos or videos in the Photos app - Apple Suppor
Basically the above says to look in Recently Deleted and in Hidden. Be sure to check your Library thoroughly-- the pictures may not be where you expect, as dates may have changed. You can use the search field with the date or location. And remember, you can sort the Library by date captured or by date added. Also, your Library view now has filters, and you may not have your filter set to "All Items:"
If you don't use iCloud Photos, but you have Settings>Apple ID>iCloud Backup turned on, then you may be able to recover data from the last 30 days or so, but you would need to look at the date of the backup to be sure it's from before you lost the images. You should look here:
Restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch from a backup - Apple Support
This requires you to erase everything on your phone and replace it with the backup.
If you don't keep your own backups to an external drive, then there really isn't any place else to look.
