Savanah Fortis is a journalist and documentary photographer from Los Angeles, CA. Her journalism work lies at the intersection of emerging technologies and arts and culture. Her photography work focuses on the hidden-in-plain-sight stories of the world through subcultures, travel, and music.

Her work can be seen in international media outlets and journals, as visual content for NGOs, and throughout the web. Savannah’s geographical area of specialization is the Balkan peninsula. She has professionally led groups of elite travelers through the region. 

In 2017-2018 Savannah was awarded a Fulbright Fellowship to Sofia, Bulgaria. While a grantee, along with teaching English to high schoolers, she created a visual storytelling project, “A Country In Transit”. This project debuted as a solo photography exhibition at the AEther-Artspace in Sofia and became her first photobook.
