THE RATHKOPFS

Anna and Jordan Rathkopf are an award-winning Brooklyn-based photography and directing duo with a cinematic, documentary-inspired style. Their work explores tenderness, resilience, and connection with raw honesty, using storytelling to amplify powerful voices and spark meaningful conversations around caregiving and survivorship.

Their book, HER2: Diagnosed, the Caregiver, and Their Son, chronicles their journey through illness and caregiving, offering dual perspectives on shared struggles and strength. The project has been featured by CNN, Good Morning America, LensCulture, Brigitte, and more.

Recognized by CommArts, The Communicator Awards, and American Photography, they were honored in 2024 with the Photographic Achievement Award in Visual Storytelling by the United Nations’ International Photographic Council for their deeply human and visually striking work.
