Thank you everybody to make this the most amazing (photography) year EVER!

Jun 202012
For a multitude of reasons, I have decided to switch back to my former i.d. Rudgr.com. First of all I feel the need for a less-Dutch name but mostly I’d like to restore a more personal touch to my work as a photographer. Hopefully, using my own name again will help accomplish that a little.
In terms of my website, nothing much will change. This years new design was pre-set for the change. Most notably will be a new copyright for all my web-based photos and a more personal touch to my work as a photographer.
Keep an eye open at this website www.rudgr.com (in progress) and my Twitter or Facebook!
Hope you will like the change and let me know what you think,
Rutger
