How can recover my iPhone 4 without restoring It went into recover mode while was updating it

I think part of the problem is my memory space had been exceeded. I own a 8 gb, but it had about 8.2 according to itunes. I was going to delete some pictures and videos after updating, but it never came back. Now it's just a screen with the usb pointing to itunes.

I've tried:

However, as soon as the "reboot" apple appears for a couple seconds, the recover screen comes back (usb->itunes).

Can anyone help me? I have family pictures that I don't want to delete.
