Biography

Dominick grew up in rural Cornwall and moved to London to study philosophy at UCL. His interest in photography began as a means to explore his new environment and led quickly into freelance work for national newspapers.

Since then he has built up a client list that includes The Independent Magazine, Guardian Weekend Magazine, Le Monde, Liberation, Time and Medecins sans Frontieres.

In his personal work, Dominick continues to explore the relationships between people and their environment and often focusses on the experiences of indigenous communities around the world.

His long-term project "The Edge of Two Worlds", documenting the changing lives of a community of Innu in northern Canada, won second place in the Observer Hodge award in 2004, and the Marty Forscher Fellowship Award for Humanistic Photography in 2005.

He now balances commercial and editorial commissions with book projects, including Wild Swim, published in 2007.
