Welcome to
Music Festival Photos, concert and festival photography by Alan Cole.
I supply my stock images to various artists, bands and record companies for their own promotional use as well as magazines, festivals (some as official festival photographer) and websites, of which I am the house photographer for
www.brightyoungfolk.com.
This has included requests to cover Glastonbury festival for The Imagined Village and Bellowhead at the BBC Folk Proms at the Royal Albert Hall. My work can also be found on several albums including the highly acclaimed second album 'Matachin' from Bellowhead and the 30th anniversary album from Oysterband 'The Oxford Girl & Other Stories'. Magazines include a front cover for 'efdss' and a two page (tweleve photo) spread for 'fRoots'. Internationally, my images have been used in 'Sing Out!' (United States) as well as press articles in Germany and Sweden.Please remember all images are copyright and remain the property of Alan Cole / Music Festival Photos.
