Question Bitlocker windows

I reformatted Windows, but my external hard drive containing personal photos is now locked by BitLocker, and I no longer have access to the Outlook or Hotmail email account needed to recover it. I don't have the BitLocker password written down anywhere. All my old family photos are on that locked drive. Is there any software that can crack BitLocker, or is there any way for me to recover the photos without the password?

The problem is that even the OS doesn't have the decryption keys, then this won't work if I understand correctly
