Photography

MICOMM’s photography services extend from corporate photography and portraits to equipment and progress photography. Whether it’s an aerial shot of one of Australia’s largest coal mines, a portrait of the General Manager, or a sweeping shot of the newest dragline on the block, we’re at home on any mine or industrial site.

At MICOMM, we consider the end use of your photographs. Before undertaking a shoot, we reflect on the medium, the audience, and the key messages, and determine the best way to capture the subject. Then we’ll climb the highest staircases, we’ll wait for the sunrises, we’ll head underground or we’ll get airborne with large format cameras for the ultimate wide angle. Our eye for composition and lighting, and the ability to make our subjects feel at ease, contribute to a high rate of client satisfaction.

If you’re unsure about the type and size of images you require, MICOMM will photograph in a range of frame options to give flexibility with end use. We highlight your operation’s unique attributes—whether they’re half-complete projects or dozers—and to get the right shot we’ll continue to shoot after the sun goes down.

At MICOMM we know how to communicate subtle messages through pictures—employees working hard, teamwork, clean offices, and well looked after machines portray a thousand words. We know that safety is an issue, so it’s always in the forefront of our minds. We ensure our subjects always wear correct PPE, and that there aren’t noticeable hazards in the background of our shots.

The result is a well-planned collection of images that tells the story of your people, your operations and your site. Our world-class images make your operations look good in brochures, PowerPoint presentations, safety and training materials, stakeholder relations, milestone events, on the internet...whatever you need. Then, our advanced cataloguing and archiving system backs up images and stores them for fast and easy retrieval. And if you’re after a special effect, our graphics people are masters at image magic: retouching, removing, sharpening, adjusting light and colour.

We understand your industry so we get the basics, as well as the intricate, right the first time.
