Allan Cole Roberts bio picture

About

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).




Musqueam Carvers — Native Olympic Artwork

Jakob and I had quite the experience last week that sort of blew our minds. We were invited by a great friend of mine named Jeremy to come to South Vancouver and visit the Musqueam Reserve to photograph carvers at work in preparation for the Olympics. The people we met were preparing stuff for the torch relay and the opening ceremonies, and it blew our effin’ minds.

We also got to meet the lady who created the logo on the ice hockey jerseys! She was cool as hell and super talented (duh). We hope to meet her again soon.

Anyways, Jakob and I now have the fun task of weeding through about 800 pictures (hope there’s a least a few good ones eh!) and we’ll post them when they’re ready.

Here’s a little one that I liked a lot (not sure why, but hey, I liked it!).
