An Annual Report Published

Following on from a previous post about An Annual Report shoot, here are some of the images selected by the client and designer and as used in the Australian Synchrotron 2011 Annual Report.

2011 Hockey Shoot

Each year I shoot images for the Mornington Peninsula Jockey Club Year book, this involves shooting action and group photographs of each of the teams in the club, some 28 teams, but then I also photograph as many of the finals matches that I can get to.

An Annual Report

I have just wrapped up three days of shooting for the Australian Synchrotron's Annual Report, three very solid days on location, but oh wow! I have had the privilege of shooting there a number of times now, including last years Annual Report, and am continually amazed, everywhere you turn there is something to catch the eye and imagination. I have only myself to blame if I was to come away from an environment like this without the shots.

Major Projects

Continuing our documentary shoots of both the Northern Sewer Project and Melbourne Main Sewer Replacement, it is a fascinating process. These are a couple of stills shot along the way.

MMSR. The Yarra River Crossing, down under the Yarra welding plates in place ready for the GRP linings to be inserted.

51 Location portraits

I have just wrapped up shooting 51 environmental location portraits for Melbourne Water. Every couple of years they recognise their people who have served the organisation for 20, 30, 40 or 50 years with a commemorative book, a great idea, giving something back to their dedicated staff and also creating a tool to promote the organisation as a long term career option for their new staff.

The brief was to capture the recipients in an environment that reflects something of who they are and where they work. I travelled more than 2000km all over Melbourne for this one, including Tarago Reservoir, Maroondah Dam, Sugarloaf Reservoir, Eastern and Western Treatment Plants and a few other locations such as Head Office.

One of the nice things about this assignment was getting to spend some time with each person getting to know them, all spoke positively about their time and experiences with MMBW and Melbourne Water. I felt it was a privilege to photograph these people.

Below is a selection of a few images.
