The best way to do that would have been a custom URL scheme but AFAIK there is no schemes for the photo app.
See here the existing custom URL schemes for native iOS apps.
If you want to display the user’s photos, you can use either:
-the UIImagePickerController (you’ll find tutorials on the web) or
-the ALAssetsLibrary to access the photos and videos (that’s a lot more work as you will have to create the GUI to display the photos yourself). See here.
