Every year I am lucky enough to be given the responsibility of shooting the images for Zimbabwe Platinum Mines’ annual report. Being the largest mining group in the country this generally means there is a lot to cover throughout their areas of operations, mining and community projects. It’s generally a hectic week of shooting but the results are always worth the effort! Below is a selection of excerpts from the report which you can find on the Zimplats website here.
In August I was asked by the owners of Harare’s newest boutique accommodation, Hotel 258 to create some marketing material of their property for the grand opening. Being a city hotel the focus was mainly on the modern, fresh looking rooms, each with a unique design style and elements. All in all it was a fun shoot and I think the results speak for themselves! Be sure to give their Instagram page some love!
Earlier this year I was contracted by KW Blasting, Zimbabwe’s premier drilling and blasting company, to cover a variety of their drilling operations across the country. These images where to be used on their website and social media accounts so I was asked to cover all aspects of their on-site operations from machinery to staff working. The visual geniuses at Marson design then worked their social media skills with the images. Check out some of the results below.
I am very lucky to be able to do a lot of architecture photography around Harare and Zimbabwe as well. One of my regular clients are the awesome Architectural Planning Studio who I have worked with for ages. APS always have a variety of projects on the go, from residential refurbs to commercial food outlets, housing developments, large scale projects and even hospitals! Check out some of the most recent work I have done for them, with the usual variety in scope and size! Also be sure to check out their services as well as my past work for them on their website here.
I have been lucky enough to work with Zimbabwe Platinum Mines over the past 5 years creating images for their Annual reports and yearly marketing campaigns. My scope of work typically covers all of their operations above and below ground as well as their varied CSR projects close to the mine and around the country. There is always lots to cover so the days are long but inevitably rewarding! You can check out some of the results below as well as find all the annual reports on Zimplats website here.
Azzurri Pub and Grill offer some delicious food! I know this because I got to sample a lot of it while I was photographing their menu not so long ago. Azzurri not only wanted their dishes photographed but wanted to created some ambiance shots around their cocktails and dining out experience at the venue, so we used some friends to play the part of diners, and funnily enough they also loved the food! Which dish would you love to tuck into?
I have been working closely with the communications team at Zimplats over the past few years creating content for a number of their marketing and online platforms. Earlier this year I was tasked with photographing their mining operations and CSR projects for their 2020 integrated annual report. The brief was centred around Zimplats core institutional values; the mining process, employees, shareholders and the community around the theme “we respect, we care, we deliver”. The scale of the Zimplats operations meant that I was never far away from some stunning visual opportunities and I am thrilled with the results!
Architecture is definitely one of my favourite photographic genres and so when I was commissioned by Office Design to photograph their amazing new multi-purpose office space for Old Mutual Zimbabwe I was naturally thrilled. The concept of the shared working space is not new to the corporate world, but it is new to Harare and the team behind the design and implementation of the project have certainly created a world standard product. My brief was to showcase the project as a whole with wide angle shots and then focus in on some of the intricate design details. Check out some of the vibrant results below.
I have been working with the amazing team at Halsteds for many years and recently I helped them create some images in their stores that will be used on their social media platforms. We shot images in all areas of the store, from general shopping in the aisles to hardware and bathroom fittings and created a substantial range of images. Check out some of the results below!
Platinum mining giant Mimosa Mining recently commissioned me to help update their marketing images database. The brief was to get engaging images of their staff and operations to be used on all their marketing platforms. This required me to be on site for 3 days of hectic shooting that spanned the mining operations both above and below ground, their CSR projects in the surrounding communities as well as staff and aerial images.
Mimosa are platinum miners and so the bulk of their operations are underground, so I spent a fair amount of time way below the earth surface capturing all the activity. I think the results below do both the staff and the operations justice?
Being a large mine there is also a lot of activity and infrastructure above ground and the following day was spent capturing this variety above ground. Check out the results below.
Mimosa prides itself on being a modern, responsible mining operation and hence has a established and far reaching CSR projects that extend from their immediate community to all corners of Zimbabwe. I spent a day in the Mimosa community and quite a few days travelling the country capturing their amazing work in schools, hospitals, clinics and vocational training centres. Check out some of the inspiring images below.
