Colchester United

The U’s have teamed up with Official Club Photographer Richard Blaxall to launch www.coluphotos.com, which will allow supporters to purchase the best match photos, shots of supporters at games and other social events at the club’s Weston Homes Community Stadium.

The site will allow fans to buy prints of those photos, as well as the images on other products. The website is now live and will allow fans to get their gifts just in time for Christmas!

“We are really excited about the relaunch of our photo website,” U’s Media Manager Matt Hudson said.

“Over the past couple of years, Richard’s photos have come in for plenty of praise and the ability to purchase these photos of match action and fans in the crowd will definitely be a popular one.

“With Christmas just around the corner, there’s plenty of choice to get the right gift for the U’s fan in your family.

“Richard also has some very exciting ideas on how to expand the product range, so we’re looking forward to making the site a big success.”

www.coluphotos.com will also let families of Academy players purchase photos of their boys in action, as well as cover the U’s extensive Football in the Community activities.

And Richard added:  “I have really enjoyed taking photos for the first team over the past couple of seasons, and the site will give fans the chance to get hold of their favourite pictures both on small prints and large canvasses.

“Importantly, all age groups will be treated the same, so the five-year-old children at a community course, the Academy players taking their first steps in the game and the first team players will all get the same level of professionalism and service from the website.”
