About The Publisher

Peter Sanders
Peter Sanders began his career in the mid 1960s photographing the rock n’ roll icons and documenting the culture of that time.
In 1970, he set off for India, cameras in hand travelling for seven months. This trip became a spiritual odyssey that led him onto Morocco and thereafter to the Holy cities of Makkah and Madinah, where he photographed the Hajj, at a time when few professional photographers gained access to Islam's holiest sanctuaries.
During the following fifty years he has travelled extensively around the world documenting societies and cultures often hidden from view. In 2019 he published Meetings with Mountains, Encounters with the Saints and Sages of the Islamic World. Through exhibitions, the Art of Seeing workshops, presentations and his photographic books he encourages broader and deeper interactions between people of different races and faith.
