My iPhone 14 just went into a boot loop and won't turn on. A repair shop told me the hardware is corrupted because of storage issues and said they can't recover any data. Is there really no way to retrieve my photos? I've got over 10 years of unbacked-up memories on there, and I'd hate to lose them. Any advice would be appreciated!

You could look into hiring data retrieval specialists. They can often recover data from damaged devices, but it might cost a bit.
You might want to try another repair shop for a second opinion. Sometimes different places have different capabilities and tools that might help with recovery.
Make sure to check your iCloud account! iPhones usually back up photos there automatically unless you changed the settings.
Have you thought about taking it to an Apple Store? The Genius Bar sometimes has options, but be aware they might not be able to help if the damage is severe.
Yeah, I heard that too. They can be strict about what they can or can't do.
