We are Drew and Mikayla Render. A married couple who started shooting weddings in 2018 and fell in love with it! We love getting to work together and capture beautiful moments!
We absolutely LOVE weddings. We have done over 75 weddings together and our each others best second shooter. We know how have perfected our dynamic and have tricks up our sleeve to help you too! Don't know how to pose, or feel weird doing it? No worries! We do it with you and can show you exactly what to do!

personable. adventurous. spontaneous.
One of the most common things we hear from our couples is "We will need a lot of help, we don't know how to pose", well good news, most people don't!! And we don't expect you to! When it comes to your photos our main goal is to show YOU, not the set up and fake version. We want your session to be an experience. We will all hang out, chat it up and snap some pictures in the process.
We could come in, not say a word to you, and take photos in the side line. But that is not fun, and we don't feel passionate about that. We genuinely LOVE our couples. We love getting to know your hearts, dreams, and plans for the future. That is what makes this job so much fun. We are passionate about you as people and what to get to know you so your photos can reflect who you are.
This can be kinda strange to some people, and sometimes we are not the best fit. Get to know us and say hey to find out if we will work well together!
Our purpose
I'm mikayla render
your new best-friend
I have always loved art in all forms and when I met Drew in 2017, I fell in love with photography through my love for him. We started to grow our business by just having fun and taking photos of friends and family.
A few things about me, is I consider myself pretty good at DIY projects after making our dream wedding happen on a pretty tight budget. I aspire to be a risk taker and just go with the flow of life! We have a german shepard pup and so any dog related photos are a win for us!!
Also a new mama as of 2023 and has been the BEST life changing experience. This has shaped my new love and passion for family and maternity photos. It helped me realize the importance of those memories.
the guy behind the scenes
Drew comes from a missionary family where he got the chance to live in South Africa for 6 years and learn/work in the photography industry. His passion for this grew and came back with him to America. When he moved to Evansville he switched from more landscape/ surf photography, to taking photos of friends for fun!
Drew is the conversationalist out of the two of us. You will always catch him striking conversations with anyone and everyone. He also loves a good dance party, so catch us dancing with you at the reception!
