First, do not save anything else to the card.
Anything new saved to it could overwrite what you are hoping to recover.
Second, take the SD card out of the phone and use a card reader...either on a PC/laptop, or a USB one attached to your PC.
Then run a recovery software, like SanDisk RescuePRO, if the software can see the files, you're good.
If it cannot, then consider sending the card to a professional data recovery company.

But, first....stop using the card.
