My experience in the photographic industry spans over 25 years. In that time I have worked as a commercial and editorial photographer as well as implementing one of Australia’s first digital post-production laboratories. This enables my to offer a broad range of services from image acquisition on location or within a studio environment to complex composite post-production assignments.
Complimenting this aspect of my photography is my fine-art career which can be appreciated at mikegray.com.au
