Contributing Writer / Photojournalist

DefensePhoto.com

DefensePhoto.com is a team initiative focused on commercial and marketing photography and content marketing/PR for defense domain.

We deliver a wide range of photo reports concerning combat deployments and exercises/operations: and this includes imagery and textual layer, articles, published across a variety of outlets. We also remain in possession of in-depth domain knowledge, which means that our photo reports and articles may concern defense products or offerings as well, in a commercial dimension. All of our content is created through close collaboration with publishers and defense industry clients, and official organizations (such as NATO) as well. 

We also deal with corporate marketing and media strategy support, with foundations embedded in discourse analysis and linguistics. Given our expertise, content transcreation and translation for the Polish context, to match the narrative prevalent in the Polish public sphere, beyond ordinary translation, is somewhat a natural service we're able to render.
