Contacts should be Google contacts (if they're not, see the contacts instructions at Backing up an Android Device). That will sync the new phone to the same contacts as the old phone (if they're on the same Google account).

Photos? Either copy them from the old phone to a computer, then from the computer to the new phone, or run an app like WiFi File Transfer on the old phone, the web browser on the new phone and download them to the new phone that way.
