Matt Mendelsohn is a photographer and writer from Arlington, Virginia. After a fifteen-year career at United Press International and USA Today, he now is the founder of Matt Mendelsohn Photography. When he’s not shooting, Matt writes humor pieces for publications like the New York Times, the Washington Post and the Huffington Post.

Matt’s been a photographer for 21 years, though his passion for photography started long before even then. Back in Mattlin Junior High School, in Plainview, New York, Matt vividly remembers seeing an image come up on a piece of paper floating in a tray of liquid. The rest, as they say, is history.

Matt became the photo editor of the news section of USA Today and eventually the director of photography at USA Weekend, a Sunday magazine with a circulation of 27 million weekly.

Outside of the news business, Matt is known as one of the hardest working wedding and portrait photographers in the country. Photo District News included Matt in its “15 hottest wedding portfolios in America” issue and Washingtonian Magazine described his portraits as “a breed apart.”
