Mac stolen, how to get documents back++

Hi! My mac got stolen some days ago and I bought a new one today (desperately needed). I had a lot of photos at documents I REALLY want to get back. Is there any way that's possible? I of course didn't have any backup and I did't use iCloud... My new mac syncronized some of my old photos back to the 1. of June, but I've lost 1++ years of pictures. I hope there are someone out there who knows something that could help me!

Thanks in advance :-)

MacBook Pro with Retina display, iOS 8.4

They're gone, as you did not keep backups and you don't have the Mac anymore.

Next time backup, this is not a good way to learn why it's important.

How are you guys adding a photo to your avatar? I don't see that option in settings.
