ILONA SCHONG PHOTOGRAPHY
Stories from yesterday. Memories for tomorrow.
VISION
Although, for me—as for many others—my passion for photography began with my first successful, standalone photos, which can also be found in my portfolio, I’m ultimately most drawn to photos that tell a story, whether individually or as part of a project. I’m currently working on a few personal projects, and they help me stay focused. It’s nice to structure the ideas I have, find some peace, and experience more depth. I hope to be able to share some of this soon.
SCORESBY SUND, GREENLAND
After two days of sailing, we reached the Øfjord; our journey through the pristine fjord system of Scoresby Sund could begin.
