Some artists paint with brushes, others with words—but for Meredith Diamond, storytelling happens through the delicate balance of light, composition, and emotion. With nearly a decade of experience, Meredith has crafted a signature style that seamlessly blends documentary moments with editorial artistry.
“I’ve been drawn to the power of visual storytelling for as long as I can remember—whether through design, architecture, or photography. This passion led me to study fine art photography and graphic design in college, where I began photographing weddings and quickly fell in love with capturing love stories in an artful, intentional way.”
From the sweeping landscapes of Aspen to the enchanting vineyards of Tuscany, Meredith has had the honor of capturing more than 100 love stories worldwide. Her philosophy? The beauty of a wedding day is found in both the grand and the intimate—the stolen glances, the way hands reach for each other, the way light falls just right.
For couples seeking timeless yet deeply personal imagery, Meredith’s work is an exquisite balance of candid storytelling and refined composition.
“My style is documentary with an editorial edge,” she explains.
Her approach is not only artistic but also deeply intentional. By incorporating both film and digital mediums, Meredith creates an aesthetic that is both nostalgic and modern, rich with texture and true-to-life tones.
“I carefully refine each image to ensure that the colors, tones, and overall feel remain true to the day. My editing process focuses on natural, timeless color correction—enhancing skin tones, refining contrast, and preserving the authenticity of the setting.”
At the core of Meredith’s work is the human connection. She believes that true artistry lies in building relationships with her couples, understanding their unique stories, and capturing moments that feel deeply personal.
“It’s such an incredible honor to document one of the happiest days in people’s lives. I strive to capture each couple’s story in a way that feels true to them—preserving the real emotions, the genuine connections, and the unfiltered joy of the day.”
For her, wedding photography is not just about beautiful images—it’s about trust, emotion, and preserving legacies. Every element matters, from the delicate details of heirloom jewelry to the laughter shared between loved ones.
“I work closely with planners to fully understand the overall design vision for the day, ensuring that the setting and flow complement the story I’m capturing. Whether it’s the champagne toasts, live music, or heartfelt laughter, I cherish each intentional element, knowing that these are the moments couples will hold on to forever.”
No two weddings are the same, and Meredith believes that every couple deserves a personalized experience.
“I absolutely believe in tailoring each package to meet the unique needs of every couple. I take the time to listen to their vision, preferences, and priorities, so we can create a custom package that reflects the specific elements of their wedding day.”
Whether a couple desires extended coverage, a bespoke album, or additional sessions, Meredith ensures that their experience is seamless and stress-free.
“My goal is to make sure they feel fully supported and confident in their photography experience, from start to finish.”
Reflecting on her journey, Meredith offers advice to those just starting out in the wedding photography industry.
“If I were just starting my career and launching my business, my advice to myself would be simple: just get started. Time moves so quickly, and it’s easy to fall into the trap of waiting for everything to be perfect before putting your work out there.”
For her, growth comes from experience, and connections are invaluable.
“Attend networking events, meet other industry professionals, and make meaningful friendships. You never know how those relationships will unfold or how they can positively impact you and your business in ways you never expected.”
Meredith’s guidance extends beyond photography—she also helps her couples feel at ease in front of the camera.
“For a photo shoot, my biggest recommendation is to do whatever makes you feel happy and beautiful before the session. Whether that’s getting a mani, having your makeup done, or picking out a new outfit you feel great in—do it! However, none of that is ever strictly necessary. My primary goal is to make you feel comfortable and confident so you can truly shine in your images.”
On the wedding day, she encourages couples to let go and fully immerse themselves in the experience.
“You’ve hired a team you trust, who understands your vision, so your only job is to be fully present and soak it all in. The more you relax and enjoy the day, the more your photos will reflect that genuine joy.”
Meredith’s passion for travel has taken her to breathtaking destinations, where she captures love stories against stunning backdrops.
“Absolutely! I feel so fortunate that my work has taken me to so many stunning destinations around the world, and I truly love every place I get to visit. There’s something about experiencing a new location that sparks fresh creativity.”
From the vibrant streets of San Miguel de Allende to the rolling green hills of Ireland, each destination leaves a lasting impression.
“I also have a special connection to Mexico, as I got married in Cabo San Lucas. It’s always held a special place in my heart, and I’m thrilled to be returning this year for another tropical destination wedding that I can’t wait to photograph.”
Through her documentary-meets-editorial approach, Meredith Diamond continues to craft timeless, emotionally rich images that stand the test of time. Her ability to balance grand landscapes with intimate, fleeting moments makes her a true storyteller—one who preserves love in its most beautiful and authentic form.
