My name is Erin De Shay, and I capture the beauty in dark and brown skin through editorial campaigns using punchy colors with deep shadows. The themes in my photography often reflect strong feelings of self expression and intentional storytelling through dramatic lighting.

My influences stem from archival digital and physical media from the 90s and 00s era, ranging from magazines to nostalgic 64 bit video games. I currently focus on a mix of studio work and outdoor photoshoots using a Sony camera, offering a dynamic range of tones. My photos typically use cinematic angles to create unique imagery with precise color grading.
