My name is Allan Cole Roberts, but 99.9% of the time, I'm refered to as Cole. Photography is something I have always been involved with, and that is due mostly to my mother, April. She's a heck of a photographer and is the one who planted the bug in my ear to pursue it as a profession.
People are my favourite muses, and I primarily do portrait photography. Along with this, I do weddings and commercial photography.
I am based out of Vancouver although I am a travel nut and don't mind taking jobs on that invovle hitting the road. My partner for projects is Jakob Granqvist, so if you book me for anything, then you'll get the both of us snapping away pictures. He looks like Brad Pitt, so he's a good guy to have along.
Equipment-wise, I'm a Nikon fan. Outside of photography, I'm a hockey fella' who had an interesting junior career and was suitcased all over the place. After hockey, I completed a masters degree in business over in Sweden, which is where I met my lovely girlfriend Therese (whom I coaxed over to Vancouver from her hometown of Söderhamn, Sweden).
This is Therese’s brother, Erik. He’s standing on 15 tons of fun. He’s a logger eh.
I took a whole wack of picture of him driving around this monster of a machine. I’ll post more later, but I liked this one so decided to throw it up here eh!
I realized two things today: I really haven’t taken many (if any) pictures of people on this holiday and there’s very little sunlight here.
So, I combined the two for a quick 5 minute picture ’session’ thingy with Therese. It was sort of like “Therese, the sun’s going to be gone in about 20 minutes!...
- She is such a beautiful person - both inside and out. You really captured her aura well Cole! She looks so happy and content in these pictures - home will do that for you I suppose!December 30, 2009 - 05:07

I’m officially going back to Vancouver a fat mess. No joke. All I’ve done is eat the last four days and I’m like a gluttoned pig.

So Jakob and I (a lá Nordica) have a fun promotion going on until Valentine’s day – Couple Photography.
While this idea isn’t exactly new, we’re also raising money for breast cancer research at the same time. If you have followed this blog for a while, you may know that my mother (with her friend...
When I was living in Helsinki a while back, I had an Italian buddy who was convinced that dogs spoke different languages. There’s a video tape of him out there somewhere where he’s lambasted one night trying to explain this theory. I think I was just as lambasted though, so everything he said made perfect...
