On a recent industrial and engineering project I was commissioned by FloGas UK and was challenged with providing imagery that supported their engineering and sector services.
We highlighted the various technical services they offer to their clients, showing off the facilities and staff's expertise in a manner that demonstrates professionalism and increases customer confidence.
Much of the work took place inside their engineering workshop as it offered a lot of opportunities to capture the intensity of an engineering environment.
All busy workshops come with the usual amount of grime and patina, but one of the most difficult aspects during a recent industrial and engineering project, I was hired by FloGas UK to provide imagery that showcased their engineering and sector services. My goal was to highlight their technical services and demonstrate their staff's expertise in a professional manner, which would increase customer confidence.
I used modified flash lighting to enhance the surfaces and remove any dark areas in the scene. To help clean up areas that have clutter, you can't move or don't want to highlight, I leave those regions in the scene unlit.
By being selective about the angle of shooting and by choosing a careful composition we can also exclude a lot of the usual work clutter that creeps into most workshops. This is a common tactic, just moving stuff just outside the frame will make the image much more appealing.
