The photos were taken 2 years ago, but when were they DELETED? If it was recently then you may still have a chance.

Flash memory uses a wear levelling technique that spreads writes over different parts of the memory space (each cell has a finite number of writes before it goes bad) so in theory even if something is deleted it may still be residing in the flash somewhere. The person doing the recovery would probably need intimate knowledge of the chipset inside the flash card, and how it works...
