Hello,

The other day at work i i was on my phone and a messege came up on my status bar (i have a galaxy s2) and the messege said usb storage damaged 'it may need reformatting'  It says my phone is using my sd card as mass storage and now it wont let me use my camera, my music and i cant view my picture gallery.

I have many photos on my phone all of them memories so i really dont want to re format my sd card as i know that will delete everything. I've tried plugging my phone into the computer to see if i could copy the photos into a file but my computer wont read my phone so i'm completely stuck and have no idea what to do. I've taken my sd card out and put it back in, but nothing has happened. Do you have any idea how i could solve this without losing my photos?

No, none of those any good unfortunately, I had a feeling but worth a try.....
It's promising though that your SD card is recognised in recovery mode so I'd keep trying to connect it to PC to get your pics off it.
Your other option is to try and reflash your firmware with Odin
