Welcome to episode ten of Photo Mama Podcast – conversations on all things motherhood, photography and life. In this episode, we are joined by Anna Gordon, a highly experienced editorial and portrait photographer with over 20 years of experience in the field.
Anna has worked with some of the biggest names in the media industry, including The Guardian, The Financial Times, and the BBC. She began her career by taking photographs of Central and South America for various photo agencies, which allowed her to learn Spanish along the way.
Anna then went on to train as a photojournalist at a group of local North London newspapers before working for the national news media. In addition to her work in the media, Anna is also a regular contributor to charitable organisations such as Save the Children and the Red Cross.
Recently, Anna has successfully pitched, written, and photographed some photo essays for The Guardian, and her work can be seen regularly in national newspapers, books, and magazines both in the UK and worldwide.
Anna is also the proud mother of two children, aged 13 and 9.
