The answer is it depends on whether or not you conducted a "low level" format or not. Such a format will actually write over the card making photo recovery unlikely. But with Canon cameras, format is normally a quick erase (which is recoverable), UNLESS you manually check the "low level format" box in the menu (did you do that?). But either way, there are numerous freeware software options available for photo recovery that may work for you.
Take no more pics until you've recovered the photos, take the card out of the camera. Here's some freeware photo recovery software that should be what you're looking for:
It is unlikely your images are lost but I would advise not to use the card until you recover them. If you purchase a quality brand flash card reader (eg. Lexar or Sandisk) you often receive an image recovery program with it. You basically plug the reader into your computers USB port, insert the card and run the program to get them all back safely. After that, I would recommend putting the card into the camera and formatting it using the "Format" option from the menu. People often buy new cards and forget to format them in the device they intend to use it in, it is an important step to remember to ensure your information is being safely stored.
It's no problem at all to get them back. Please see this post for several free software that you can download. You'll need to use a card reader with these programs though:
After you've recovered your photos, consider formatting the card IN YOUR CAMERA. This should help prevent such episodes from happening again. This will also erase the card, so make sure that you've recovered the photos first.
Press menu, then select the tools menu. Scroll down to the selection showing the capacity of your card and select it. Follow the on-screen prompts for a "Low-Level" format.
