OS X Yosemite deleted iPhoto from my computer?

I recently installed os x Yosemite on my computer, its a MacBook Air that came out a few years ago so it's fairly new. I had no problems with it up until i installed the new software.

iPhoto had been completely wiped from my computer. The application wasn't in my Dock anymore so I checked in "Finder" and it wasn't even listed.

I downloaded the app from the app store, so I have it on my computer again, however I've lost all my pictures!

I looked around my computer for a bit and i couldnt find any folders that contained all my old photos.

Any idea how i could get them back? Thanks!

    I have suddenly found the following:

    The iPhoto Library is locked, on a locked disk, or you do not have permission to make changes to it. iPhoto can try to repair the permissions.

    Not sure what to do about it.

    I can't get my pictures either.
