In honor of Veteran’s Day and all soldiers who have served, past and present, we’d like to share this portrait shot by Christian Kozowyk for the US Department of Defense. This was an assignment with Mullen Advertising Agency in Boston. Christian was proud to be a part of this ongoing project.
KOZOWYK’s Award winning project for the Department of Defense with MULLEN Advertising makes it into Archives 200 Best!
I wanted to share the story behind the award-wining image.
We traveled around the globe photographing the troops for 2 years, capturing personnel across the different branches at work and at play. It was such a amazing experience, I am so honored to work with and alongside such great people. Plus who dosn’t want to ride around on an amphbious tank?
The first shot is the featured spread in Archive, the next two are production pictures from our helicopter in Camp Pendleton, CA.
Congratulations to Christian! This striking image he shot for the Department of Defense through Mullen, will be showcased in the Archive 200 Best Advertising Photographers special edition.
"Dear Oregon" by Olivia Bee
Olivia Bee and Christian Kozowyk had their images hand-picked for Zara’s “Dear America” campaign— a collection of 50 photographs uniquely representing each of the 50 states, specially curated to celebrate the U.S. launch of the online Zara shop.
“Dear America” comes in the form of an online exhibition, as well as a printed set of postcards that were sent to fashion press across the country. We love this beautiful love letter from Zara, and are thrilled that Olivia and Christian were asked to be a part of it!
