AGR = Alex g. Rout
I am a Sussex-based photographer capturing my two great passions, cycling and the raw, natural world.
Known for my distinctive approach to race-photography, I produce creative, impactful and honest images that capture the reality of races, whether at grass-roots level or on the biggest stage. Away from cycling I spend time 'chasing shapes', whether in stormy wave-forms at Newhaven Harbour, the mesmerising murmurations of Starlings at Brighton Pier or in manipulating light, colour and shape whilst experimenting with ICM photography.
For many years now I have been a regular photographer at the London & SE Cyclocross League, which has become the keystone of my work and evolution as a sports photographer.
My cycling photography reflects my own riding style and love of being off-road. Cyclocross and mountain biking are among my favourite disciplines to document, but I also relish the challenge of capturing road races, hill climbs, track racing or bmx.
Recent commissions include work for the SSX Mystery Tour, Condor Women's League, and Hunt Bike Wheels.
I am available for commissions throughout the UK and internationally. I am always keen to discuss projects, brand collaborations and print enquiries so If you have an idea, I’d love to hear about it.
