Spring brings new beginnings...

We are thrilled to tell you that "Rudo and Kate Photography" has gotten busy enough that we have split our business into two!

We feel so fortunate and privileged that things have worked out this way and we want to thank you for being part of our success.  The past few months of our blog have been almost empty as we have been preparing and updating our new websites for this shift.  We will still have access to our "Rudo and Kate" email addresses, but now you can also reach us with our updated information.

The winds of change, like Mary Poppins blowing into London on her black umbrella, always bring adventure and discovery... Thank you thank you thank you to our awesome couples who have supported us and helped us win the Brides's Choice Awards three years in a row. We love you guys and we're so happy to still be continuing the fun together into the new phase.

Please feel free to send us any questions or comments and thank you once again for being part of the awesomeness that is allowing this to happen!

Sincerely,

Rudo & Kate

Happy Holidays from the Irish Sea!

As some of you may know, I (Kate) am in Dublin, Ireland, at the moment... and if you've been watching the news you'll have seen the chaos recently caused by the unusually cold and snowy weather over here! Well, this morning I witnessed what I was told is an old, Irish, Christmas Day tradition: a freezing cold dip in the sea!

We walked down to the sea front - the Dublin Bay to be specific - and caught some early birds going for a quick in and out. As the morning wore on more and more folks showed up, old and young alike, to take the plunge. Some people immersed themselves quickly then jumped out, shouting, head shaking, running into the arms (and towels) of family and friends. Yet there were some very hardy swimmers too! Some of the "all year rounders" actually did a few strokes, one man exclaiming with delight, "invigorating!" Upon emerging from the pool another elderly gent advised a his young companion, "Ah, there's a bit of a nip, there is." Then there were the onlookers, taking pictures, holding towels, wearing Santa hats, and passing around thermoses and flasks. All in all a jolly scene!

So, while this is our wedding photography blog (and I will be posting images from a beautiful Irish wedding soon!), I couldn't resist these images and their happy vibes as a way for Rudo and I to say

Happy Holidays everyone, from Rudo and Kate Photography!

Thank you to everyone for your support, friendship, laughter, creativity, and love - here's to much more in the New Year to come!
