If you are ever in North Bay Ontario, make sure you stop by “The Miners Son Restaurant & Lounge” for some great food, conversation and atmosphere. I have been known to do some food photography in the past, so when Nich Gignac (Owner & head Chef) asked me to photograph some plates and scene setters I couldn’t say no, especially because it is part of the Mining Industrial Industry.

It’s one of the first questions I get asked: “What would they need photography for?” (When I tell people what I do for a living.) Well, for one instance would be a companies “In House” trade magazine like Atlas Copco’s “Mining & Construction” magazine. Sure they could add snapshots thatemployees have taken with their cellphones but why make a company and product look sup-par? In house magazines are a great way to promote the company, products and the people who create them. Sometimes the images I create are not used for a year or two later when the information is relevant to the company. Like I say, it’s always better to have a photo archive on hand so you are not scrambling to provide High Quality Images at the last minute.

Even though we were in a back parking lot within an industrial park yesterday morning Mother Nature gave us a great sunrise to work with. With hues of orange and purples cresting the horizon the 4LD had it’s final session it was transported to it’s final destination.
It’s true if you didn’t know it already. It doesn’t snow underground but the Grader still has a job to do by smoothing out the roads on a regular basis.
Here is a quick sneak peak at one of the images I created this Wednesday with the Joy Global 4LD at the Norcat Facility in Onaping. I enjoy photographing equipment when it comes straight off the productive line as it’s still fairly clean and shiny with just a hint of wear and tear from the drive in.
Earlier this year I was asked by Dovetail Communications if I could supply them with images to be featured throughout their next edition of the Camese Compendium Of Canadian Mining Suppliers 2017 which arrived in my mail yesterday. Camese is a trade association made up of Canadian companies & suppliers of the mining industrial industry. I wish to thank all involved at Dovetail and Camese for choosing Mining Industrial Photographer @miningphoto for the cover and inlaying images.

On my way back from a shoot last week I pulled over on the highway to take a quick photograph of this Winter Scene. It was a frosty morning with a good blanket of snow on the ground and I drive past this area all the time, but with the snow covering the ground the whole area took on a different look which made me want to capture it.
Last week I documented a massive move from Lopes LTD in Coniston to the Vale complex in Coppercliff for Navcor Transportation Services. Hydro lines had to be lifted, roads had to be blocked and a police escort was needed to navigate the city streets and highways.
As the seasons change here in Ontario so does the apparel I wear on the job site. Recently I started wearing my Green Custom High Visibility Vest manufactured by Ago Industries. I photographed their facility and processes a few years ago and as a thank you they made me this High Visibility Vest to wear on my shoots. I have had it tucked away as I tend to wear a 1 piece overall but now that the cold weather is hear and I am layering up, this vest is perfect to still keep me visible.
