Dominique was born in Paris, (where his images now stretch across billboards for Kookai), and raised in the states. His path to photography was well-planned, to say the least, and consisted of a photo degree, followed by a return to Paris to explore his possibilities and broaden his artistic sensibilities. Concerning the move, he says you’re incomplete unless you’ve lived in some combination of Paris, London, or Milan. Though his current home of New York isn’t second fiddle; it’s a city he says “has refined tastes, the kind you find in Europe. [New York and Paris] are fans of each other.”
