ENTER A SAFE SPACE
"We must always present Black people
positively and forever striving forward." - W.E.B Du Bois
My name is Jaypix Belmer, My pronoun is My Name.
Identifying as a non binary black, Indigenous person of color,
I have a special way of using the lens as a tool for storytelling.
Born & raised in Boston, Ma. I am a graduate of New England Art Institute with a B.A. in Photography and have worked with clients in both private and commercial industries known for imbedding emotion through light and color for an eye popping reflection.
My photography teaches you the importance of the soul.
My professional style delves into the subtle intricacies of class, capturing the unconsidered people and places who inhabit the urban landscapes My works dig deep with authentic engagement in communities of color, LGBTQ communities, and other historically or currently excluded communities in the Greater Boston area which is essential to my photogrpahic journey.
I enjoy working with people. I love collaboration with visionaries, builders & creators providing a safe approach that enables one to articulate their vision.
When not shooting I continue to call agency on important social & economic issues for the betterment of our world. I also work on local and national commercial projects based around developing brand identity through creative enterprises.
