// search for all the pathnames matching pattern
foreach(glob("/myfolder/pic*.jpg") as $file)
{ 
// check if newfolder exists, if not create it
if(!is_dir('/newfolder') && !file_exists('/newfolder')) {
mkdir('/newfolder', 0755);
}
// new file path
$newfile = '/newfolder/'.basename($file);
// copy file to new location
copy($file, $newfile);
}

Use php glob and basename

foreach(glob("/old/pic*.jpg") as $file)
{
    rename($file, "/new/".basename($file));
}
