How to Recover Deleted Photos from SD Card? Please Help!

I thought I had downloaded the pictures from my camera's SD card to my computer, and then I deleted them from the SD card. It was 3 weeks of personal family photos and work-related photos. I only noticed a few days ago. My trash has deleted everything I put in it. Is there any chance for me to get them back?
