Dominic Forniti is a self-taught filmmaker and photographer from Cleveland, Ohio whose work focuses on documenting people honestly — who they are underneath the version they usually show. Drawing inspiration from the artists and creatives building something real in his hometown, his practice is rooted in collaboration and proximity to the subject.
Dominic approaches each project as an exploration — building trust with his subjects to find the unguarded moments that exist beneath the surface. His process is always collaborative, always unhurried, and driven by a belief that honest documentation requires genuine human exchange.
