Dominique Misrahi was born and raised in Marseille, France and currently lives in downtown New York. She has spent a lifetime studying movement and dance, and has been a fitness instructor for over twenty-five years. When Dominique is not on an active photography assignment, she is busy documenting her experience of New York City’s vibrant street culture. From the beginning, she has trained her vision on a single subject: People. Dominique’s work has been featured in several international photography exhibitions, including “Women Street Photographers” traveling exhibition. Her work has been published widely in international photography magazines. She has studied under photographers Bruce Gilden, Robert E. Meyer, Jamel Shabazz and Richard Renaldi, Andrew French and Gulnara Samoilova. While Dominique’s work has proved she is an inspired yet dispassionate observer of the varied appearances of the human condition, Dominique has a unique talent for revealing the inner light that animates her subjects and gives them life. Dominique has been a long-term mentor to other photographers and conducts bi-annual Women Street Photography workshops to help women pursue their journeys in photography. Dominique is a staff photographer for the annual Tribeca Film Festival in New York City. https://dominiquemisrahi.net/
