Experience
We have been producing infrastructure, construction, and civil engineering photography across Ho Chi Minh City, Hanoi, Da Nang, Singapore, Shanghai, Cambodia, and Laos for over 20 years. Our work spans large-scale transportation systems, renewable and conventional energy projects, and major industrial development sites. With a background in engineering and fluency in local languages, we communicate effectively with site managers and construction teams to ensure smooth coordination, proper access, and efficient on-site workflows that produce images that go beyond documentation.
What we do
We shine a light on infrastructure, construction and civil engineering projects in a way that turns complex technical work into compelling visual communication. From energy and transit networks to major industrial developments, our photography connects viewers to what is being built and why it matters. These visuals drive stronger storytelling for investment, ESG, government relations and global communication, giving organizations a more powerful way to present their achievements.

Bui Thanh Xuan
"EM Productions were easy to work with and took control of organizing all the logistics with the local client. I set the timeline in advance, and they met it without any problems. When our global team saw the images they produced from the Vam Cong bridge project in the remote Mekong Delta they decided to change the cover of the annual report because they were so good. Everything was amazing!"
Keith Barker
"Working with EM Productions on photography within the challenging, active environment of the Hanoi Metro system was an outstanding experience. Their team operated seamlessly in harsh site conditions, fully respecting safety protocols while producing images that went far beyond standard documentation and genuinely captured the scale, precision, and human effort behind the project. We were extremely happy with the final imagery and how effectively it communicated the essence of our work."

Photography Services
We turn complex infrastructure and construction activity into visuals that inform and persuade. Working across Asia gives us insight into how project developers communicate credibility, progress and impact to investors, government agencies and the public.
01
Energy Projects
Energy projects define the future of national development. We photograph solar farms, wind farms and traditional power facilities in a way that reveals scale, complexity and environmental impact. These visuals help developers, operators and stakeholders communicate capability, progress and long term value to investors, government agencies and the public.
02
Road, Bridge and Tunnel Projects
From major highways to bridges and tunnel networks, we document transportation infrastructure that connects cities and drives economic growth. Our photography highlights engineering detail, construction progress and the teams behind the work, supporting reporting, stakeholder engagement and international communication for public and private sector partners.
03
Metro and Subway Projects
Metro and subway systems represent some of the most technically demanding civil engineering projects in the region. We capture underground excavation, station development, track construction and control systems in a clear and credible way, helping operators, authorities and multilaterals document progress and demonstrate long term urban impact.
04
Industrial Development Sites
Industrial development sites require visuals that communicate capability and readiness on a national and global level. We photograph manufacturing zones, logistics hubs and large scale industrial facilities to showcase infrastructure quality, operational potential and investor confidence. These images support economic development boards, industrial park operators and private investors as they promote international trade and foreign direct investment.

Infrastructure Photography FAQ
What types of infrastructure photography does EM Productions provide?
We photograph energy projects, road and bridge construction, tunnel and metro systems, industrial development sites, and civil engineering projects at every stage from active construction through completion. Our work is used for investor reports, stakeholder updates, government submissions, corporate communications, and project marketing. We have documented infrastructure projects for clients including VSL, Systra, Turner Construction, Manitowoc, and Potain across Vietnam, Singapore, Shanghai, and Cambodia.
Can you photograph active construction sites safely?
Yes. We work on active construction and infrastructure sites regularly. Our team is experienced with site safety protocols including PPE requirements, restricted access zones, and coordination with site management. We plan every shoot in advance with your project team to identify the safest access points, optimal vantage positions, and any timing constraints around active operations. Our experience includes photographing inside the active Hanoi Metro system during construction for Systra, as well as large-scale bridge and highway projects for VSL across Southeast Asia.
Where does EM Productions shoot infrastructure photography?
Our team operates across Ho Chi Minh City, Hanoi, Da Nang, Singapore, Shanghai, and Cambodia. Infrastructure projects often span multiple sites across different cities or regions. We coordinate the logistics for multi-site documentation so you receive consistent quality and visual continuity across every location in a single coordinated production.
Do you provide progress documentation photography over the life of a project?
Yes. Many infrastructure clients require ongoing documentation at regular intervals throughout the construction lifecycle. We have provided multi-phase documentation for clients like VSL and Turner Construction, setting up recurring shoots at agreed milestones from groundbreaking through completion to build a comprehensive visual record of the project. This documentation serves investor reporting, government compliance, stakeholder updates, and marketing for the completed project. We maintain consistent angles and compositions across visits so progress is clearly visible.
Can you use drones for aerial infrastructure photography?
Yes. Aerial photography is essential for large-scale infrastructure projects where the scope and scale cannot be captured from the ground. We handle all drone permit requirements, which vary by country and by site. In Vietnam, drone permits require a separate application process with specific regulations that have changed multiple times in recent years. We manage the full permit process so you do not have to navigate the regulatory requirements yourself. Contact us to discuss the specifics for your project location.
How is infrastructure photography priced?
Pricing depends on the number of sites, the number of shoot days, travel requirements between locations, whether drone photography is needed, the number of final retouched images delivered, and the rights and usage terms. A single-site documentation visit is a different scope than a multi-year progress documentation program across several locations with drone coverage and global publication rights. Every project is different, so we provide a detailed quote after understanding your specific needs. Contact us at info@em-production.com or call +84 776419346.
How do I start an infrastructure photography project with EM Productions?
Send us your brief at info@em-production.com or call +84 776419346. Tell us about your project, the sites involved, how the images will be used, and any safety or access requirements we should know about. We will set up a call to discuss the scope, logistics, and timeline. If your project requires ongoing documentation, we can plan a multi-visit schedule from the start.
