Emmanuel Cole is a photographer born and based in London. Raised in the east of the capital, the urban landscape forms a vital part of his work—its patchwork of architecture, its hidden patterns and geometry. Years spent walking the streets of the city, documenting its inhabitants, has developed his eye for portraiture and informed his aesthetic of lifestyle and street photography. He is at his happiest when on the move and searching out the fleeting moment.
Cole’s Instagram account "@ecolephoto" has been his major creative outlet, seeing him accumulate over 100,000 followers and counting.
Commercial clients include: Aco drain, Adidas Running, Adidas Original, Airbnb, Boxfresh, Converse, E&J, Ford, The FA, Frontier Larger, Four Fox Sake, Greenwich Peninsula, Harry’s, Levi’s, Mini, Motorola, Napapijri, New Balance, Nike, Palladium Boots, RIW, Samsung, Sony, Sky, US Embassy, Vodaphone UK, Waterloo Council, Warner Music and Yoox Net-A-Porter + more
