Dave Williams and Sig Kasatkin are two freelance photographers living in West Yorkshire. Both have a lifelong love of the great game of Rugby League.

Dave is a former professional player and a Leeds supporter. He has been the official club photographer at Leeds Rugby and Yorkshire Cricket.
Sig has been a supporter of the game in general, and of Castleford in particular, since the early 1960’s. He was the club photographer at the Huddersfield Giants throughout 1999 and into the early part of the 2000 season.

Both had their photographs regularly published in Open Rugby magazine from the late 1980’s until the magazine’s takeover by League Publications Ltd in the late 1990’s. Both were also regular contributors to Treize magazine in France until that publication's demise in 1999.

This wealth of experience and two huge libraries of photographs have joined forces to create RugbyLeaguePhotos.com.

RugbyLeaguePhotos.com was formed in 2000 to provide webmasters and publishers of newspapers, programs and brochures with ready access to up to date stock photography covering all the professional Rugby League clubs in Super League and the (then) Northern Ford Premiership.

The website contains well over 250,000 images from Amateur, National League / Championship, Super League and International level and we regularly employ freelance photographers from all over the UK. Our pictures are used on websites, in newspapers, weekly and monthly publications and have been used to illustrate numerous books.

We provide a service where the press have instant web-based access to live match and press-conference pictures and we can proudly boast that we offer the best and most comprehensive Rugby League photography in the Northern Hemisphere.
