Excellent photographer

Very easy to work with. He does excellent photography. A true photographer. A lot of people just pick up these automatic camera and call themselves photographers. He is truly trained and educated in photography. He knows how to do proper lighting and proper positioning so all of the photographs are wonderful.

Mr. Rathke is incredible! He was open to all of our crazy ideas (smoke grenades in out engagement shoot) and just a really awesome photographer. He was always timely, we got our engagement pictures back in about 2 weeks and our wedding photos in about 3. The quality is always amazing, he really captures the feel of an event. I am so in love with our photos!

Mike was an incredible pleasure to work with! Not only is he a blessed and talented photographer, but he is also a wonderful, comforting presence on such an important day. My family and I look forward to any opportunity that we may have to work with him again. Mike, thank you for capturing the love and beauty of such a special day!

There is not a bad thing I can say about Mike and Rathke Photography. They were helpful every step of the way. Even with the stressful things going on during our wedding, they still got the best shots of us. I very much recommend this photography for any occasion really.

Outstanding! We hired Mike's services for our Wedding photos, and we are so grateful he worked with us.
The talent of Mike is so, that when you see the photos they evoke the same emotions of that day. He is creative, artistic, and very professional. We really enjoyed the session, it was relaxed and playful, and the results were very natural, happy and cute moments captured on all the photos.
From the first contact to the day he delivers the product, is all 110% satisfaction.

Mike Rathke is great, he is outgoing and comforting, like you're working with a friend, but is knowledgeable and professional at the same time. He was friendly to work with and got some amazing shots at our wedding. He sent us some sneak peaks just 3 days after our wedding and 10 days after the wedding he sent us the link to an online gallery with around 300 pictures in it. We are blown away by how fast he is working and how updated he is keeping us.

Absolutely loved Rathke Photography! Mike and Ron were wonderful to work with. They meet with us and talked out all the different packages they have. Mike did a fantastic job on my bridal portraits. Mike and Ron did a wonderful job on the day of the wedding making sure to get pictures of all the details. We received a sneak peak within a week of the wedding and a good portion of the pictures in less than two weeks from the wedding. I have recieved so many compliments about how beautiful all the pictures are. I would recommend Rathke Photography to anyone!

Just let Mike know what you're looking for and he'll take care of it. My favorite pictures were the natural ones, he captures expressions/emotions we miss in an instant.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

Mike is hands down one of the most genuine people I've met. He's an incredibly skilled photographer and a joy to be around. If I could hire Mike to follow me around all day and shoot photos I would. Just take a look at his photos yourself, you wont be disappointed.
