shay munroe
Munroe is an internationally featured photographer and writer with a background in photojournalism, performance, film, and theater based in Los Angeles, CA and Afton, VA. She specializes in editorial style photography and fine art. Two of Munroe's greatest joys in life are the way light bends through an environment and the power of art to create an entire sensory filled world to slip into. She believes in capturing the beauty, truth, and strange and intriguing hilarity of humanity, telling visceral stories through her photographs. A mainly self taught artist, she began working in photography at an early age first in film then moving to digital.
