HER2
The Diagnosed, The Caregiver and Their Son.
NOW AVAILABLE
(OCTOBER 2024)
Photography and Text by:
Anna & Jordan Rathkopf
"HER2" offers a deeply personal exploration of our family’s experience following Anna’s breast cancer diagnosis at age 37. Through Anna’s evocative photography and reflections, we reveal the emotional landscape of rebuilding confidence and reshaping identity from diagnosis to “survivorship.” Jordan’s lens delves into the complexities of caregiving, portraying the often unseen pressures of being a constant pillar of support.
Together, we also reflect on our son, whose life has been profoundly shaped by this journey.
Recognized with the 2024 Photographic Achievement and Social Impact Award by the United Nations.

Lecture and Visual Presentation of HER2
I'm trying to transfer the love I feel from my body to yours. I want you to feel it. Remember that I was here. To know that I will always be here with you even if I'm not. I will do everything I can to stay here to be with you. You need me.
"I would go to the car everyday to cry so you wouldn't see. I wanted to be strong for you but I felt so powerless. I was barely hanging on"
