Just as above as it is below.

There is just as much action above ground as there is under it! From automated trucks and drones to advanced data analytics, technology is revolutionizing mining operations. There are many diverse roles behind these innovations, making mining more efficient and sustainable. Just as I approach the majority of my photography, I just let things happen and try to creatively light it and capture it as the story unfolds.

It’s not all about the rock
Mining / 0 Comment / January 17, 2024

When we envision the mining industry, images of rugged landscapes, underground tunnels, and hardworking miners often come to mind. However, the world of mining extends far beyond the stereotypical scenes of hard rock extraction. The industry encompasses a broad spectrum of roles and careers that contribute to the exploration, extraction, processing, and management of valuable resources.

Vision, lighting, speed, repeat.
Mining / The People / underground / 0 Comment / November 8, 2023

Over the years I have adapted and modified my capture process when underground. What the eye sees underground cannot easily be replicated with a simple click of the shutter. Nowadays I try to recreate the available lighting but increase the intensity to achieve a proper capture. The trick for me is to make it look bright enough without actually being aware of the lighting. Over the years I have tried to “decrease” the time it takes from concept to capture so that we can maximize the time we have underground to create more marketing assets for my clients. It is always a work in progress.

When photographing in the crisp morning air one must hold their breath in anticipation for the perfect shot. Photographer problems lol.

Leveling The Playing Field
Mining / Mining Equipment / Photography / 0 Comment / October 16, 2023

Graders are the silent sculptors of the landscape. These mighty machines, equipped with a blade, precisely level and contour the earth, preparing the terrain for the next phase of operations. They ensure efficiency and safety, turning rugged landscapes into workable surfaces.

An Ace In The Pocket
Mining / Mining Equipment / 0 Comment / September 25, 2023

Sometimes in cramped spaces you have to get a little creative with illuminating the subjects. A steady hand and longer exposure sometimes works but having a “backpocket” light as I call it always helps. Small flashes, flashlights even my caplamp have been used in the creation process.

The Night Shift
Mine Photos / Mining / Photography / 0 Comment / September 25, 2023

Capturing the night shift is a total 180 when it comes to the look and feel of an image. I love being outdoors at night at an active site where the only illumination is coming from the facilities and equipment. It’s a great opportunity to get creative with exposure and composition.

Mining Photography In Canada
Mine Photos / Mining / Photography / The People / 0 Comment / July 24, 2023

Meet our unsung heroes, the geologists! They are the scientific explorers who uncover the Earth’s riches and pave the way for successful mining operations. From analyzing rock formations to understanding mineral deposits, geologists play a crucial role in identifying valuable resources and ensuring sustainable mining practices. Throughout my travels in Ontario and across Canada I have photographed many Geologists in the field, always trying to change up the look and feel of the image according to the personality of the person I am photographing.

Warmth In The Cold
Mine Photos / Mining / Mining Equipment / 0 Comment / July 14, 2023

Early morning sunrise can yield those warm tones that set the day off in a positive direction. I was lying on the cold ground waiting for this truck to come up out of the pit thinking about the capture, the lighting, post editing……..who am I kidding, I was thinking about hot coffee lol.
