Capturing Your Joy for a Lifetime of Memories
I know that photography is one of the most important things to consider when you are planning a wedding and thats a responsibility I don't take lightly. My goal is that you get wedding photos that you love and you have a great time doing it! If our pictures will become old photographs, It's important to me that you have beautiful memories to show your kids and grandkids. I love getting to be a part of that and celebrating with couples during their most special times. Did you know that every couple feels awkward and nervous in front of a camera? The only way past it is a great relationship with your photographer and that's what I love to make happen. I am your third wheel on your wedding day and by putting you at ease, you will look your best and have the most fun possible!

Nate is such a GEM of a human! Not only is he chill but he is quite the talented photographer. We booked Nate for our Engagement photos as well as our Wedding and I'm so glad we did. He was up for an adventure with us on a snowy day in Februar...
y for our engagement shoot. He even had snow tires put on his car specifically for this trip! Ryan and I are not models but that didn't matter. Nate made us laugh and more importantly made us feel comfortable. Our pics were EPIC! I can't wait to see how our wedding pics turn out. From the sneak peak he sent, I know we are going to be in love with them too! Nate will be part of our family memories forever! Thank you, Kelly and Ryan
Nate captured our wedding day so beautifully! We look back at our photos and it brings back all of the joy and happiness that we felt in the moment.
When there are so many things to keep track of for the day, it's wonderful to have the photo...
graphy part of your day flow so smoothly. Highly recommend!
We are so incredibly thankful to have worked with Nate for our engagement and wedding photos. He truly went above and beyond to capture some of our happiest memories and his photos are absolutely STUNNING. I especially appreciated how he handle...
d his pricing- no hidden fees over how many hours he was hired for, instead simply a base price and he was available for your wedding day from start to finish. It was such a relief to know he would be there all day, without worrying that we would "miss" something. I should also mentioned, he worked our wedding in 106 degree heat and still managed to make us all look put together and beautiful. He was very down to earth and made us feel so comfortable. Highly recommend.
Nate is great! (And I didn't just say that because it rhymes.) I'm a wedding coordinator, which means I work with a lot of different personalities and Nate? He's a champ. His positivity and kindness really make a difference on a stressful weddi...
ng day, and I hope to work with him again soon.
Book Nate, you will NOT regret it.
Nate is extremely kind, dependable, and passionate about his work. When we got our photos back, we were blown away about how Nate captured such simple genuine moments on our special day. He works so effortle...
ssly and has extremely fair pricing for the work he produces. I’d be more than happy to share my pictures if anyone reaches out to me so y’all can see for yourselves too.
Nate Meeds was fabulous to work with! He was thorough, knowledgeable and made it a seamless process...He even honored our request to drive to a third local location with special meaning for us (apart from where the ceremony and reception were) ...
to capture some beautiful nature backdrops for some of our pics. We are so pleased with our pictures and can't thank Nate enough!!!
We loved Nate as our wedding photographer! He is laid back, professional, dedicated to his craft, and focused on making his clients feel as relaxed as possible. On top of all of that, he was willing to be with us the entire day and into the eve...
ning, so he was able to capture all of our special moments with no compromises. We would definitely recommend Nate!
Nate was amazing. Great pricing, fast communication! He went the extra mile to ensure we had the most amazing day of our lives. He scouted locations for us to elope and if it weren’t for him our day wouldn’t be half as special.
Nate was such a pleasure to work with. Let me list the ways:
- Making everyone in our families, as well as our guests feel completely comfortable in a tiny pandemic wedding (as well as the surrounding events, which he was therefore despite bein...
g all over the city)
- Asking and learning about traditional details we might want to have captured in our fusion (South Asian/American) wedding
- Taking some of the most beautiful wedding photography I've seen
- Working seamlessly with our videographer, and leading the charge with him in capturing our wedding well
- Putting together a gorgeous slideshow to tide us over while he edited thousands of photos (which was also great to share with those who weren't able to make it to the wedding)
- Just being an all around awesome person and amazing artist.
Nate was the absolute best. He went above and beyond in every way. He brought the energy and the calm exactly when we needed it on our big day. We are thrilled with our photos and couldn’t ask for more!
Nate was probably the best decision I made on my wedding day! Not only was he fun to be around, he made my husband & I feel comfortable & relaxed. The photos turned out incredible, he captured our day beautifully! Would highly recommend!
Nate is truly the best of the best. He’s professional, but also so relaxed that you can’t help but feel comfortable around him. He was the light at the end of the tunnel during our pandemic wedding planning. He’s quick to reply and very organiz...
ed. He also acted as a “day of coordinator” when ours dropped out due to a last minute location change, and he did an incredible job. He even sent us sneak peeks the NIGHT of our wedding after shooting for almost 12 hours straight. Seriously, hire Nate! He was easily my 2nd favorite person at my wedding 😉
We loved having Nate as our photographer. He is flexible and made everything so easy and stress free. His experience was so helpful as we worked to set up our day-of schedule and coordinating when pictures would be. He also was great at keepi...
ng us on schedule. He works quickly and efficiently and we couldn’t have been happier with the pictures. He also was able to get pictures back to us so quickly. You are going to want to hire Nate as your photographer.
Nate is soo great at what he does!! we hired him for our wedding in Sept 2019 and he far exceeded our expectations! Nate is very fun and professional and met with us multiple times leading up to the big day to make sure everything was ready to ...
go. On the day of he stayed the ENTIRE WEDDING !! This is something that really sets him apart from other photographers. He does such great work and is super affordable! We will be enjoying our pictures for years to come. If you have the chance to hire Nate...DO IT!!
Nate is the best wedding photographer! From initial planning to getting our gallery, Nate delivered. He is helpful, communicative, and a professional. Nate made us feel comfortable on our wedding day and captured it perfectly. We are in love w...

Nate is early, exceptionally talented, and has such a contagious case of good vibes that it’s hard not to be at ease and in full-on enjoyment mode. He not only did our wedding and had ALL photos to us in just days, but he nailed our engagement ...
photos too! He goes above and beyond to make sure you’re experience is more than you had expected. Nate is second to none and we could not recommend him more.
Nate was awesome! He made sure that every aspect of the day was covered by himself or one of his other photographers. The edited photos were fantastic. He did such a great job of capturing every special moment of our special day. He, and his as...
sistants, fit well into the ceremony and reception- people hardly noticed they were there, they were able to take great candid shots of everyone that was there. We'd would absolutely recommend Nate to anyone looking for a photographer for a wedding or anything else!
Nate is an amazing photographer and person to work with! He captured our special day better than we could have dreamed! He somehow took each moment and made them more special than we could have dreamed. I am amazed at how he was able to take al...
l that we had asked, and make it better! The lighting, the excitement, the joy, everything was beautifully captured by his work, and he managed to do so in such a creative and thoughtful way to see and know our wishes and take images of things we had never thought of. The best part of our experience was what an amazing person he is and how obvious it is from the very beginning that he cares so deeply about photography and especially the people he is working with! He made it such a fun, easy and wonderful process from planning, all the way to the completed product - you can really tell how much he loves what he does, and how much he cares for those he is shooting for - that we will certainly work with Nate again! The final product really shows how much time and care went into shooting and capturing every detail, and then completing those images that you will cherish forever really was more than we could have dreamed for. Thank you Nate for an amazing experience - please check Nate out, you won't find a better Photographer for any occasion!
Nate made our day absolutely wonderful! He was detail-oriented and very helpful in making our plans a reality while remaining encouraging and enthusiastic throughout a long day. I highly recommend using Nate as the photographer for the moments ...
you want to remember forever!
Nate Meeds is phenomenal! He has an authentic and tender eye and has that magical ability to casually capture perfect shots of you being relaxed and real. If you want an actual portfolio that reflects and evokes the beauty and feel of your spec...
ial day, then Nate is your only choice!

Thanks so much for taking the time to see if I might be a good fit to photograph your wedding! I've found that one of the most important factors in a great wedding is enjoying the people you surround yourself with. Since I will basically be your third wheel on one of the best days of your life it's important that we click well!
That said, some things I’m passionate about include photography(obviously), travel, the NBA, beer, vinyl records, pretty movies and tv shows with no story, and a ton of other stuff.I tend to be easily excited so if you think “I wonder if Nate is into..." I likely am!
