Stolen ipads

HI,

hope someone out there can help me.

Yesterday someone broke in to our house and stole our two ipads and a laptop.

Unfortunately everything is backed up on the lap top so right now I'm missing all my photos.

I haven't used icloud which I regret so much.

I also have missed to install "find my ipad" so I'm really lost here.

Is there any chance i could find my photos somewhere?

is it possible to find the ipads without the "find my ipad"?

Hope someone knows what to do....

best regards

Lisa
