With its many small shops, Moss Side might, he thought, support a "picture shop", so he rented a barber's on Greame Street from January 1972, inviting people to come into the Free Photographic Shop to have their photographs taken for no charge. Two months later he had run out of money and had to close but had gained useful experience.

Meadows took this to twenty or more towns. Some of this work was published in Meadows' first book, ''Living Like This'' (1975), which combined Meadows' photographs and text with first-person accounts of those he had talked with. Among the photographs of this series is ''Portsmouth: John Payne, aged 12, with two friends and his pigeon, Chequer, 26 April 1974.''The title has been given in various forms; this is how it appears on the copyright page and p.32 of ''No Such Thing as Society'' (2007). Payne, holding his pigeon in the centre of the photograph, told Meadows that he caught and bred pigeons. Paul Cabuts writes that:
The photograph, like many other photographs in the exhibition 'No Such Thing as Society'' offers a window on a lost world, one that is difficult to perceive without considerable culturally-specific contextualisation. Meadows' photograph is however a masterstroke in providing clues about the life and times of those recorded through his lens. The boys became the subject, although the pigeon had been the vehicle for this particular engagement. In offering up their pigeon (the photograph was taken at their request), we enter a world of friendship and pride, the social activities on a working class housing estate. . . .

Career as teacher and digital storyteller

Meadows became interested in teaching while photographing in Lancashire in the 1970s; in 1983 David Hurn invited him to help teach the Documentary Photography course at Newport College of Art and Design. From 1994 he has taught at Cardiff School of Journalism, Media and Cultural Studies.David Alan Mellor, ''No Such Thing as Society: Photography in Britain 1967–1987: From the British Council and the Arts Council Collection'' (London: Hayward Publishing, 2007), 217.

Photographic archive

In August 2014, Meadows' photographic archive was described as being in the process of acquisition by the Library of Birmingham: "Meadows established a relationship with a collecting institution with specialist expertise and resources", receiving much help from Pete James, the library's Curator of Photography Collections, and Val Williams. With a drastic cut of funds to the Library of Birmingham, its ability to continue to archive the work seemed doubtful.In a note within his page
