About Demetrius Fordham

As a Black photographer and artist, I use my photography primarily as a platform for celebrating and highlighting underrepresented minorities. My portrait series, Transparent, highlighted the diversity and intersectionality within the transgender community, while my series Ageless Beauty, a fine art nude series featuring unretouched portraits of women aged 55 and over, pushed for more diverse representations of beauty in society.

My series have been praised and covered in media across the globe (The Huffington Post, Harper's Bazaar, Marie Claire, SBS Australia) and featured in gallery shows in Europe (the Blank Wall Gallery in Athens, Greece, in 2016).

Even in my commercial work, I choose to partner with organizations whose values align with mine, such as The Friedman Transgender Institute and The American Heart Foundation.
