Mike was awesome! He showed up right on time and was so easy to work with. He is professional yet made the experience fun! He worked incredibly hard to get all the best shots! Would definitely recommend. We will for sure be using him again for my sister's wedding !
Mike & his father did a fantastic job on our wedding. We received a million compliments from family and friends with how personal they made the experience. We were in several different rooms and outside but they somehow were able to be everywhere at once. I cannot wait to see all the pictures from our very special day!
Michael and his dad were great. I loved having them shoot my wedding. They were everywhere and did fantastic. We can't wait to see the pictures. I will definitely use them for any other photo sessions needed in the future! Highly reccommended to anyone!
There are not enough good things to say about Mike Rathke. He is professional, enthusiastic, so organized. He was a joy to work with before and during our events. You will absolutely get your money's worth from him. He has a great personality and does an excellent job of bringing our even the most shy people (like my new husband) and it's great. I am so satisfied
Mike was an absolute dream to work with! From our first meeting I knew he was going to be great, he really listens to what you want and takes the time to learn about you and your wedding dreams. He made us feel completely comfortable and re-assured that we were in knowledgeable and professional hands while also being completely approachable. During our engagement session he was totally open to trying a more unconventional location and exploring the area to find some cool and different places that meant something to us!
Mike was always quick to answer questions and always made sure to double check and make sure I was getting exactly what I wanted.
On our wedding day he and his dad were a DREAM, they made my life so easy and made sure to capture the special shots I had requested earlier in the process (I think I would have completely forgotten to ask that day since so much was happening!) He was even able to wrangle our 5 BIG family groups and knock out those group shots quickly and beautifully (which is no easy task in our family). We had an absolute blast and they definitely captured that :)
Not to mention how FAST we received our shots, I was amazed how quickly he got our pictures edited and uploaded and looking incredible. I was so anxious to see them and was pleasantly surprised when our online gallery was ready soon after we returned from our honeymoon!
Bascially, Rathke Photography is amazing, everyone should hire them. Even some of my friends and family have commented on how great they were and we all look forward to working with Mike again in the future!

I cannot say how much we are really appreciative to Mike and his dad Ron and what an awesome job that they did photographing our wedding! Mike made me feel so relaxed and coached me through a few pics to where I got to know the poses and was doing them without him telling me to. They had some great ideas on shots and did a great job on the ideas that we had also. They really captured the exciting mood of the evening! They have done our family pics before and did a great job then, and we are really glad they got to share this special evening with us! Thank you Mike and Ron!
I just wanted to take a moment and let every bride and groom know about Rathke Photography. My husband Stephen and I interviewed quite a few photographers and we kept walking away thinking two things, can we just find someone to honestly and candidly capture our special day and also can't we find anyone that isn't $3000+ extras if edited. Luckily, we were introduced to a father & son company, Rathke Photography. We sat down for breakfast in a quaint cafe in Humble, TX and discussed what we were looking for. They were perfect! Where other professional wedding photographers would only have 1 photographer on hand in the package price, Rathke offered 2! If you have ever had photos done before you know how important it can be to have two different eyes shooting. They see more than a single photographer, they capture more, and they use different angles and lens'. We had the added bonus of them being very familiar with the area and the venues. They knew our reception venue like the back of their hands! It was easy to like Ron and his son Mike and so we signed into a contract with them. I am thrilled with their work, their professionalism and most importantly, their ability to make the bride and groom feel relaxed, happy and confident! They rock! Our photos turned out amazing, along with the photo DVD played along to the song of our first dance. They also did an amazing job on our wedding album which was shipped to us. We also received the rights and 1000+ images for our own keeping along with a photo print credit. I am so happy we chose Rathke Photography. They mingled easily with every guest, young and old, quiet and outgoing. Thank you Ron & Mike for making our special day so easy and more importantly for capturing it for our children to one day see. There are no words, thank you doesn't seem like enough.

Father & son team who are great at what they do. They offer a lot for a great price. My cousin also used them for her wedding.
I found this father and son team at a bridal show in Houston. They had a great price so I went with them. They traveled to Galveston for my bridals and our wedding. The pictures turned out great! They have a wonderful working dynamic and each tries to capture a better picture than the other, which works to your advantage. They spent about 3 hours on my bridal portraits and helped me with my dress and flowers the whole time! The bridal pictures were online within 4 days of the shoot and I received the cd with ALL images within 2 weeks. Our wedding pictures were online within 2 weeks of the wedding, but I am still waiting on the cd with ALL images (just 1 month--so not upset). You get all the images with all the rights. They edit prior to sending the cd. They were so kind, and really worked hard the whole time and took some really great photos!
We used this father and son team for our wedding about a month ago. They did a great job. We enjoyed seeing some of our pictures on the online gallery. We are waiting for our DVD with all the images from the day.
I was very happy and impressed with my bridal shoot. The pictures came out great. My wedding photos did not have the same quality as my bridal shoot. Many photos were unfocused, not close up enough, and had poor lighting, even outside.
Ron & Mike were wonderful to work with! They captured the wonderful time we had. And they were so great to work with. I definitely would recommend them!
We had so much fun working with Mike and Ron! They were very good at putting everyone at ease, getting all of the shots we wanted, and at times we felt they read our minds about what we wanted. We love the pictures we recieved, and could not be more happy about the whole experience. We thank them for making our day more enjoyable and capturing every memory for us!
Ron and Mike were great to work with. They did our engagement, bridal and wedding photos. The finished product always beat my expectations. I would highly recommend them.
