Ways to Get INVOLVED

Creative Collab: Modeling

We're looking to creatively collaborate with the local NYC community! Priority given to folks that demonstrate the beautiful diversity of our community; different body types, gender identities, (dis)abilities, racial backgrounds and sexualities. We’re looking for folks who are comfortable in front of the camera and are excited to be part of projects promoting a QT-owned brand.

The goal is publishing visual and written content via Instagram, YouTube, our Website and Blog. I’ve found working for trade is a great way to collaborate as a photographer and now as a brand creator. I can offer a product for you to keep (Value up to $60) and food the day of the shoot (ie. lunch or dinner). Please express your interest in modeling for in-studio and/or lifestyle shoots by completing the form via button below.

Mini-Docu-Series

Nova Edge Threads is looking to collaborate with diverse LGBTQ+ individuals on sharing our stories, experiences, life lessons and/or art! The goal is to tell real stories and authentic narratives. Looking to create mini-documentaries for YouTube with shorter videos for Social (ie. Instagram). Inspired by: Mini Documentaries in 2 Hours!

I’m Dae, the Creator of Nova Edge Threads. I love getting to know people, connecting with community & contributing with my video capabilities. Our stories are so important, let's share more of them with the world. Collaboration structure will be work for trade; Finished product serves as promotional content for you (or just a great time) and meaningful work that aligns with the brands mission to uplift Queer & Trans people.
