It is nice to meet you! My name is Dia Jade, I am a non-binary and queer identifying creative. I am currently a Midwest based Creative Director and Photographer whose images seek to normalize LGBTQIA+ identity through my own queer lens. I incorporate my own experience of self-identity through unique fashion and make-up, twisting the forced expression of gender placed upon me in childhood into one of empowerment. By relearning these forms of expression I am able to break away from the ‘standard’ of beauty and create acceptance in the unusual. Expressing myself through bold color, I combine all of my skills to create personal stories, sharing raw beauty with the world.
Alongside visual story telling I am currently available for assignments, commissions, and collaborations! I am someone who loves to interact with fellow creatives on a team to make wacky ideas come to fruition. It is important to me to empower the voices of LGBTQIA+ within my works and collaborate with those who are not scared of the beauty the community has to offer.
