Writing and Editorial — Raff Karva

writing & editorial

Photography and writing have run alongside each other my whole career. A background in linguistics, PR and journalism means the words get the same attention as the images. If you need both from one person — coverage of an event, a press release with photographs, copy for a festival programme — that's one conversation.

Based in Edinburgh, available across Scotland.

what's on offer

Event Coverage

Photography and written coverage of the same event — a review, a report, a feature piece — delivered together. Useful for festivals, cultural events, live music, civic occasions and anything else worth documenting properly.

Press Releases

Written press releases for events, launches, announcements and organisations. Accompanied by photography where needed.

Copywriting

Concert and festival programmes, website copy, newsletters, promotional material, advertising copy. Written with a background in linguistics and PR — which means words chosen carefully, not just filled in.

Editorial Photography

Images produced specifically for editorial use — to accompany an article, illustrate a publication or document a subject. Delivered with captions and contextual notes where required.

the background

Linguist with a Master's degree in Semantics and a Post-Grad in PR and Effective Communication. Years of writing press releases, concert copy, festival brochures, website content, newsletters and reviews — as part of work, not as a sideline. The writing is as considered as the photography.
