In this episode of ISO 400, we hear from Amanda Rivkin, an American photojournalist currently based in Chicago who has a wealth of international experience, having worked in places like Azerbaijan, Serbia, the Czech Republic, Poland and Turkey. She’s been published in a wide variety of publications, including The New York Times, Le Monde and Newsweek among others. She has a deep understanding of storytelling and an eye for subtlety that you don’t often find in news photographs.
If you’d like to see Amanda’s work, you can check out her website and follow her on Instagram @amandarivkin and on Facebook.
As always, our music is provided by Yuki Futami, a New York-based jazz musician.
