Jean-Pierre Domingue (born in Montreal) is a French-Canadian photographer. He began his career in fashion photography and publicity at the age of 19. Following this commercial fashion career of 25 years, in 2010 has dedicated his practice to art photography.

Early years

Jean Pierre Domingue was born to parents of Canadian origin with Sicilian, Basque and Mohawk progeny, and has three sons.[citation needed] He found his early inspiration in photography magazines such as Camera and Zoom.

He left Montreal for Paris at age 18 to meet the fashion photographer Guy Bourdin, having discovered his work in the magazine Photo. Following several early fruitless attempts, he finally met him by chance .[1] He became the assistant of Guy Bourdin, and through this position gained experience.[2][3] During his return to Montreal, from 1981 to 1984 Jean-Pierre Domingue opened his own studio and was published in several magazines, as well as worked in publicity.[4]

Career

Following his return to Paris in 1984 where he since resides, Domingue was hired by the agency Karin Models as a fashion scout, and created the testboard (newfaces department).[4] During his recruitment trips, he brought many young models to Paris, launching the careers of Helena Christensen and Angie Everhart, whom he photographed in 1993 for the magazine Photo, preceded by an individual interview of himself in 1990.[5][6]

Following this period, Jean-Pierre Domingue left the

Jardin des Modes in which he did a portrait of Serge Gainsbourg,[4] and photographed fashion models such as Laetitia Casta, Diane Kruger, and more recently Lara Stone, Enikő Mihalik, Jessica Hart. His clients included l'Oréal, Yves Saint Laurent, Dior. He is also artistic director in 2007 of the clip once upon a time of the French group AIR.[8]

Domingue photographed icons of the international rock scene, notably the group Sonic Youth before their concert at La Maroquinerie, and also the actor Jared Leto in 2012.[9]

Domingue decided in 2009 to concentrate on his personal work in image creation. He exhibited in 2012 in his studio, and also showed 100 Polaroids at the gallery Basia Embiricos in Paris,

Angkor Vat, Hanoi, and the Bay of Hạ Long
in Vietnam, and he continues to photograph models and dancers.

In 2011 with his associate and friend Julien Courtois he set up Le Solaris in a 1920 Theater where Edith Piaf, Maurice Chevalier performed among others.[2]
