About Peter Mendelson

Peter Mendelson is a Connecticut-based self-taught fine art photographer.

After studying history at the University of Virginia and getting his law degree at the University of Pennsylvania, Peter moved to New York City to practice law, where he also started to gain an appreciation of urban architecture and street photography.  Peter further refined his vision through workshops conducted by various photographers, including Todd Hido, Magnum photographers Alex Webb and Matt Black, and NYC street photographer Phil Penman. The New Topographics photographers of the 1970s, Andreas Gursky, Robert Polidori and Martin Parr were also formative influences. Over time, he developed his particular style, using perspective, light, and color to capture the psychological power of urban and coastal spaces. In 2023, Peter left his law career to devote his time to further develop his fine art photography practice.

With an anthropologist’s interest in the theme of modern leisure, an eye for architectural detail, and a longterm affinity for the New England coastline, much of Peter’s work centers on coastal pastimes and waterfront and urban architecture. Focusing on coastal and urban environments throughout the U.S. and abroad, Peter’s photographs examine those things that are often overlooked, but which reward their viewers when given a second, deeper look. The result is an extensive body of fine art photography, produced both in the US and abroad, that are available as limited edition photographic prints.
