About Me...


Hello and welcome to my photo blog! My name is Theresa Noll-Thompson. I am a Kansas girl, born and bred. I love everything about Kansas (except for the humidity).


I am married to the love of my life, Mark, and we have three beautiful kids; William, Laura, and Andrew. My children were the inspiration for my business name; WilLaDrew Photography. Using each of their nick names, Will, Lala and Drew, my business name was born.


Photography had always been a hobby, nothing I studied formally. In 2006 I bought a "real" camera and started photographing everything. In 2007 I was asked to photograph my first wedding. A month later I photographed my second wedding. In 2008 I decided it was time to turn this hobby of mine into a part time adventure. I still work full time in corporate america, but my love is photography.


Unposed, candid moments is what I prefer to photograph. I shoot outside, using nature for my backdrop and the sunlight as my softbox. Check out my photo gallery and some of my art work. If you see something you like, post a comment and let me know. If you'd like to schedule a session, send me an email or give me a call. Thanks for coming by! :0)

Cowboys, Babies & More....

This past weekend was full of photo shoots; cute little cowboys, families, babies, & teens.  My photo shoot on Saturday was with Megan, Aaron, Hunter & Wyatt.

Hunter just turned 6 and is in 1st grade.  He is mutton buster and getting ready to graduate up to the Mini Bulls.  Hunter was very shy at first.  We talked about rodeos, school, and what he wants to be when he grows up (he wants to be a horse rider).

Once Hunter warmed up, he had me following him around asking me to photograph him doing some stunts, running, etc.  He was a lot of fun and sure to be a heart breaker when he gets older.

Wyatt, Hunter's 5 month old little brother, did an incredible job.  He was very happy the entire time.  Rarely do I ever get to photograph a baby that isn't fussy at some point during a shoot.  Wyatt has the most amazing big, blue eyes.  Whenever he smiled, you couldn't help but smile too. 
Thank you Megan & Aaron for inviting me out to your home.  I had a wonderful afternoon and enjoyed photographing your family in the place you all love to be.  :0)   
Kayla and Ritchie, with their 5 month old son Aidan, got up bright and early on Sunday morning for their photo shoot.  We shot on location at the Lawrence Arboretum.  I discovered this location after a bride of mine showed it to me.  I'll be shooting her wedding there on September 10th.

Aidan was so happy and smiley when he first arrived.  The poor little guy had some bad allergies, which caused his nose to run frequently.  Mom and Dad were continually wiping his nose, which of course he was not too happy about. 
Later that afternoon I had another shoot with Miss Bailey, a freshman at Eudora High School.  It was last minute mini shoot.  It was fun, laid back shoot.  Miss Bailey was quite entertaining.  I love photographing her, she has a beautiful smile and the most amazing green eyes.

Our photo shoot that afternoon had us traveling to a few locations.  We started out in downtown Eudora, making use of the walls, lamp posts and anything else that caught our eye.  We later found ourselves out in the country, near Weaver's Bottom.  I love photographing Miss Bailey; she is lovely young woman who has the most amazing green eyes.  She has a bubbly personality and is very confident in who she is and who she wants to become.  I think we captured some pretty amazing shot of Miss Bailey that afternoon.  I can't wait to do her Senior portraits in another 3 years! :0)
