AWARDS & HONORS
FEATURED PROJECTS
FEATURED PROJECT
HER2
Anna's HER2-positive breast cancer diagnosis in 2016 became the story we turned the camera on ourselves to tell — hers from inside the diagnosis, Jordan's from beside her as caregiver. Published by Daylight Books, HER2 has been covered by the Washington Post, CNN, Good Morning America, STAT News, and outlets worldwide, recognized at the United Nations, and shown in a traveling international exhibition. Anna the diagnosed, Jordan the caregiver — this is what we carried, together, camera in hand from diagnosis through life beyond and the way illness impacts a family.
