Since moving away from her parents at the age of 14 to pursue her passion for dance, Benedicte Bemet has maintained laser focus, dedication and discipline. This series of images were captured during her early days, when discussion about her expected trajectory was ever present. She is now a principal artist with The Australian Ballet.

The Australian Ballet invited me on set to capture behind the scenes imagery of campaign imagery created by photographer Justin Rider in collaboration with then Artistic Director, David McAllister AC. Four separate sets were made in one studio with various assistants and crew.

The Australian Institute of Music (AIM) is Australia’s first, and only creative institute entirely dedicated to music.

What was once the old Renmark Firestation I would walk past on my way to school, is now a vibrant cafe and roastery transformed by Callum and Lauren Benda. This is part of a series that promotes local small businesses in rural communities. Mr Benda, Callum's dad, taught me at school.

Since its inception in 1916, CSL has grown into a global biotech leader. It’s been fascinating to catch a glimpse of a world-leading operation over many years. From wearing PPE and proceeding through air lockers to record the laboratory technicians, to photographing its CEO and Executive Team, we’ve enjoyed every minute. Good inspiration for neat freaks too.

Elvis is the nickname of Erickson S-64 Air-Crane, tail number OB-2081-P (N179AC), which has gained fame in Australia as an obvious and valuable tool in bushfire suppression. The helicopter, which can hold 9,500 litres (2,500 US gal) of water or foam mix, has been brought out by the Victorian Government from the United States for each fire season since 2001-2002. The aircraft obtained its nickname due to the time that it spent working for the United States National Guard in Memphis, where singer Elvis Presley lived for most of his life.

Commissioned by Energy Australia, I spent the afternoon with a jovial group of predominately Irish tradies, whose physical agility was matched by their constant joking. Some of the men had worked together in Ireland, and their constant banter and ribbing clearly showed long and affectionate friendships. I felt like part of the team.

This suite of images was captured over four days to build an image library for Energy Australia. Commissions like these require careful planning, location scouting and casting a diverse range of people including young couples, families and retirees. We then set up specific scenes and provide some basic direction to the talent, observe and capture often unexpected and impromptu moments.

As a teenager, I worked in factories intending to land an apprenticeship, but I became distracted by music, among other things. I found myself on the factory floor again when commissioned to create an image library for Fair Work Australia. Reliving my teenage experiences, I even managed to join the workers for smoko.

Fintona Girls School requested imagery to showcase the energy and camaraderie of its students. Across three days I worked with junior, senior, secondary and senior school students (senior girls shown here); their enthusiasm and diversity was energising.

In 2014, The International Aids Council commissioned me for 5 days to cover the World AIDS conference in Melbourne. Speakers included Michael Kirby, Richard Branson and Bill Clinton amongst numerous top scientists and global experts in the medical field. The event was overshadowed by the downing of flight MH17, among the passengers were delegates en route to the 20th International AIDS Conference in Melbourne, including Joep Lange, a former president of the International AIDS Society, which organized the conference. Images from the public gathering at Federation Square mourning the loss of victims of MH17 were captured on an iPhone due to logistical issues and transmitted around the world.

I’ve retained a quiet admiration for the team at ONJCRI (Olivia Newton-John Cancer Research Institute) since photographing them hard at work in their laboratories. Very few medical research institutes manage to balance the critical mix of scientists, doctors, students, patients and families, all collaborating to make a difference to cancer care.
