WilLaDrew Photography: Romeo & Juliet

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)

Romeo & Juliet

Last Spring I went for a walk on the Baker campus and was inspired by the beauty of all the flowers in bloom. As I walked around, snapping shots of flowers, I came across a bed of tulips. This single Red tulip among all these yellow tulips caught my eye.

I snapped several photos of the tulips that day, but I never did anything with the images. Occassionaly I have this need to be creative and artsy. So, as I went back to through the photographs of the tulips, it struck me that there was story playing out in this bed of tulips. This lone red tulip was destined to be entertwined with this yellow tulip; kind of like Romeo and Juliet.
