If your pictures are on the SD card, they shouldn't be affected by anything you do here. Just to be safe, you could take the SD card out. However, if your pictures are stored on the phone itself, you definitely don't want to do anything that says "wipe." Beyond that, I don't know.

"wipe data/factory reset" will delete everything off your phone and return it to the state it was in when you first got it
"wipe cache partition" shouldn't erase any of your data, but removing the SD card to be on the safe side is a good idea. This deletes temporary files and is often done after a system update or when the phone is lagging. Some folks do this on a periodic basis, others only do it if the phone develops issues.
