How to open the iPhone of my son that passed away?

my son passed away unexpectedly. His phone is in my family plan, so I do own it. Will they be able to open it? I would hate to lose any photos that are in the phone. Thank you

Only if you know the Apple ID and password. If you do not, see How to request access to a deceased family member's Apple account - Apple Support
