Which format are these photographs? In case you have them in (E)PS  
format then using TeX4ht and creating XHTML might be an option – it  
nevertheless will create PNG versions of them for inclusion in the  
output file! With HTML Tidy (no MathML support!) the XHTML file can be  
converted to XML, if needed. Then conversion to ePub could easily  
happen.

Otherwise a conversion from the PDF file should work OK since all  
images and all text can easily be extracted. Not that easy can be re- 
assembling it to something which resembles the previous.

Another option is to present a MacBook Air to your wife... (it looked  
quite nice recently in cinema)
