Raymond Meeks (born 1963) is an American photographer.[1] "Much of his work focuses on memory and place, and captures daily life with his family."[1]

He has published a number of books including Pretty Girls Wander (2011) which "chronicles his daughter's journey from adolescence to adulthood."[1] He is co-founder of Orchard Journal, in which he collaborates with others.[2]

In 2016 Meeks received a Siskind Fellowship Grant from the Aaron Siskind Foundation. His work is held in the collections of the Bibliothèque nationale de France in Paris, Light Work in Syracuse, NY, and the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston.

Life and work

Meeks was born in Columbus, Ohio.[1] He has lived in Providence, Rhode Island[3] and the Catskill Mountains, New York.[4] He once had a career as a commercial photographer, travelling all over the U.S. "to photograph anonymous hotel rooms".[1]

"Much of his work focuses on memory and place, and captures daily life with his family."[1] Vince Aletti, wrote in Photograph Magazine, that "he finds a certain harsh beauty in its [Providence, Rhode Island's] wastelands that allies him with the best of the New Topographics crew." Parr and Badger include Meeks, along with Mark Steinmetz, Susan Lipper, Gregory Halpern, Deborah Luster, Ron Jude and Doug Rickard, in "an interesting new generation of US photographers – post-New Topographical, one might call them . . .  they are quixotic and individualistic, and are looking at America's heartland with a collective fresh eye informed by both the country's photographic heritage and a strong desire to tell American stories at a time when the country seems unsure of itself."[5]

Meeks is co-founder of Orchard Journal,[1] in which he collaborates with some of his contemporaries.[2] Parr and Badger include Orchard Volume 1: Crime Victims Chronicle, by Meeks and Luster, in the third volume of their photobook history.[2]
