Yes, you certainly can insert pdf figures (assuming you use pdflatex 
for typesetting).  I use this, but see 
<http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html> for more details:

\begin{figure}[htbp]
\centering
\includegraphics{figureFileName.pdf}
\caption{The caption}
\label{fig:theLabel}
\end{figure}

For photos, pdflatex accepts PNG or JPEG directly.  If you have vector 
PICT files, pict2pdf can be used to convert them to PDF, preserving the 
vector information.  <http://pict2pdf.sourceforge.net/> is the home 
page for pict2pdf.
