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).
I think I’m going to start making postcards just for the hell of it. I’d buy this one. Not sure where I’d send it but I’d buy it!

Jakob and I had a photo shoot yesterday with two super inspiring and clever lads: Sean Aiken and Ian MacKenzie. In a nutshell, Sean had a project called One Week Job and what he did was travel around North America for a year working a different job every week. He’d get paid and with that...

Today Jakob and I did a very ‘interesting’ shoot with a lovely lady named Kim. Interesting would apply to some of the characters we met in the alleys while taking pictures, but the shoot was a great success nonetheless.
Here are a few pictures from today. The rest are here on the Nordica site.
- Ooh, I like the one on the bottom right. Awesome wall for a backdrop, and piercing eyes!January 22, 2010 - 15:43
- Thanks Janis. That one was kind of funny actually. We were just walking along, saw it, snapped off about 10 pictures and off we went. We were being harassed by an 'interesting' character, so didn't really want to spend a lot of time at the spot :)January 22, 2010 - 16:04

This ominous looking picture is of Gastown from Hastings Street facing north. I liked the grit in the picture – sort of looked cool.
I’m really curious whether or not Gastown will turn into a total gong show during the Olympics. Deep down I sort of do (if only for a couple weeks!) just to...
