Dee Williams is a queer Jamaican-American photographer and visual artist whose work centers around stories of the African diaspora. Inspired by the rich diversity of unique cultures and communities, Dee seeks to celebrate those stories through fashion and portraiture, while deconstructing and redefining the monolithic views, ideas, and representations of Black culture and people from the outside. Using fashion as a backdrop for social commentary and drawing from her experience in Social Media Management for publications like Ebony Magazine, iOneDigital, and Thrillist, she shifts perspectives, particularly in media and entertainment, towards a more inclusive and diverse spotlight across multiple platforms. Her work has captured the attention of various publications, including GQ, Wired, and Essence.

After spending 8 years in New York City, Dee is now based in Los Angeles, California, where she continues to make her mark in commercial and editorial photography and challenge the status quo.

Dee is currently working full-time as Janelle Monáe and Wondaland’s Director of Content, but is always down to take some photos :)
