Metso minerals australia pty ltd commissioned me to photograph this screen.These fantastic australian made pieces of equipment are designed to "shake their brains out" sifting ore and minerals and NOT to break.The workmanship is a credit to the crew in the Carrington facility.

ric woods photography shooting for Industrea Mining Equipment & Metso Minerals (aust) Ltd
We offer our clients many services including high quality image capture on digital or film. Extensive digital post production service are available also. 
Many of the machines we photograph cannot be moved from where they are constructed this is where our deep etch technique. We can drop our clients 80 tonne machine onto any background they choose, including white. We consider many factors in producing the finished image.Such as; the centre image in the banner above was dropped onto a background that was off white, this gives the impression that the mining screen white is BHP chosen colour looks SUPER white as the result.
Industrea Mining Equipment another of our mining clients wants their machines presented in the best way possible for their sales brochures overseas. 
The finished images have far more appeal.
These images (below) we compiled for a 2m high trade show banner for metso minerals. File sizes of 2 gig and more require computer hardware with "grunt" and this is what we have in our studio."Computers with Grunt"

So after we capture the images such as the Grader and the 80T choc carrier below we then deep etch them and drop them on white for their graphic artist to place in the required setting.
The finished images have far more appeal.

Metso Minerals (aust) Ltd - Sreen and Test Bed photo shoot (behind the scenes)
Maree Nichols the other half of our studio takes shelter behind the whibal card (for acurate skin tones)
Metso Mineral ( aust) Ltd's latest Screen (above) mounted on the yellow test bed. This test bed is designed the SHAKE but NOT BREAK!!
The staff make fantastic mining equipment in their Carrington workshop.
As a photographer its important to tell the whole story, with and without people in the images.
The engineers want to see sharp and clean images as hi res files. This not the place for "art" shots.Consistent exposure with good colour in mixed lighting is very important.These proof images have very little editing added.Non are sharpened.
We shoot in both portrait and landscape format of the image and allow for text over image
Different points of view are included for our clients from which they choose their final images. Clients want to see staff and equipment presented at their best s we we do not send unedited images.The cost of post production of course is at an hourly rate, and that depends on the quantity of images selected.
Behind the scenes video (below) sorry about the colour cast that appeared whilst CRUSHING the video for the web and the soundtrack background noise ...
THAT'S INDUSTRIAL PHOTOGRAPHY !
It's a real buzz when the clients are pleased with the images we have created for them........
