why don't you just try it?

I guess it will automatically open iPhoto and transfer your pictures to the MBP when you connect the iPhone.

Assuming you have your iPhone plugged in, it should display all the photos/videos on it, with the option to then import.
Give it a bit of time to detect it once you've connected your iPhone, I've found the program woefully temperamental in Lion.

Does the iPhone show up in Finder?

iPhoto also does a good job of it. Just open it with your iPhone plugged in.

I have use a program called Phone Disk, but I also believe they make a free program called iExplorer that lets you browse your iPhone in Finder.

Image Capture works fine.
