Is my storage/memory/photo's (etc.) lost forever?

Hi,

I recently dropped my iphone and damaged it bad. It won't connect to a computer nor will it charge, turn on, or anything. I hadn't backed my iphone up previously either. I have some really important photos/memories on my phone that i don't want to lose.

My question is: are they lost forever? or is there some way to repair the phone adequately/repair the logic board and swap it/extract the storage some other clever way?

Thanks in advance,

Harry.
