About Cotswold Photos
I'm Rob Wilson, a Cheltenham-based photographer specialising in sports, motorsport, and corporate event photography. I capture the moments that matter — the raw action on the pitch, the precision and power of competitive motorsport, and the key moments at your business event.
I work with clubs, teams, racing drivers, and businesses across Gloucestershire, Worcestershire, Herefordshire, and the wider UK. My services include match day and tournament coverage for field sports, track-side and paddock motorsport photography, discreet corporate event and conference coverage, and professional headshots and branding.
What sets me apart is anticipation, technical precision, and fast delivery. I read the game or the room and I'm already in position when the moment happens. Priority highlights land within 24 hours, with full edited galleries delivered within 48–72 hours via a secure online portal. No fuss, no delays.
I'm DBS checked, fully insured with £5m public liability cover, and hold Motorsport UK accreditation. Whether it's a grassroots club match, a hill climb, or a corporate event in central London, I bring the same reliable, detail-oriented approach to every shoot.
If you need a photographer who turns up prepared, works unobtrusively, and delivers images while they're still relevant, get in touch.

Our Story
Photography started as a hobby, born from a love of sport and the outdoors. I started noticing the moments other people missed: the split-second before a tackle, the tension on a driver's face at the start line, the way light changes everything in an instant.
Over time it became something more deliberate. I wanted to capture those moments properly — not staged, not scripted, just real. That's what drew me to sports and event photography. The action is unpredictable, the moments are fleeting, and you only get one chance to get it right. That challenge is what keeps me going.
Today I combine my photography with a background in technology (I'm also an AWS Solutions Architect by trade), and that methodical, detail-oriented mindset carries into every shoot. I plan, I prepare, I anticipate. Then I let the moment happen and make sure I'm in the right place when it does.
I'm drawn to real moments in real environments. No staging, no scripts, no forced smiles. That's the work I love, and that's what I deliver.

Our Team
It's just me — Rob Wilson. I'm a one-man operation, which means when you book me, you get me. No subcontractors, no second shooters you've never met. You get consistency, a single point of contact, and someone who genuinely cares about delivering great work.
I'm based in Cheltenham, Gloucestershire. When I'm not behind the camera, I work as an AWS Solutions Architect, which keeps my problem-solving sharp and my approach to logistics and planning methodical. Off the clock, you'll find me exploring the local food scene or being bossed around by my cat, Dexter.

Experience
I've been photographing sport across Gloucestershire since 2015, building a portfolio that now spans field hockey, motorsport, corporate events, and wildlife. Over that time I've delivered more than 10,000 images to clubs, teams, drivers, and businesses.
Typical Clients
My clients range from grassroots sports clubs to corporate organisations. On the sports side, I work with field hockey clubs, schools, and individual athletes who need match day coverage, team portraits, tournament photography, or player portfolio sessions. In motorsport, I work with racing drivers, teams, and event organisers — particularly at hill climb and track day events — providing action shots, paddock portraits, and sponsor-ready content.
On the corporate side, my clients include businesses booking conference coverage, awards ceremonies, product launches, charity galas, and team headshot sessions. I've worked with clients locally in Gloucestershire and further afield including central London.
Whether it's a club wanting consistent coverage throughout a season, a driver needing images for sponsors, or a business needing professional event photography they can actually use, the common thread is clients who value reliability, fast delivery, and images that tell the story of the day.
