My name is Ilona Schong, and I’m a photographer from Bergen op Zoom, the Netherlands. I primarily photograph landscapes and work as a freelance project photographer. In that capacity, I can provide all the visual content a company needs. Originally trained and graduated as a lawyer from Leiden University, I worked for many years as a lawyer specializing in administrative, energy, and construction law—first at the Ministry of Economic Affairs (the Netherlands Competition Authority, now the Netherlands Authority for Consumers and Markets), then as a lawyer at Houthoff Buruma, and finally as a senior legal advisor for the municipalities of Bergschenhoek (now Lansingerland) and Rotterdam. My husband and I have three wonderful sons together, of whom we are very proud.
My fascination with visual design has always been strong, leading me to discover my true passion in photography. Through the use of digital photography and image editing, I've developed a style that is known for its vibrant, striking, and moody visuals. Being a perfectionist makes attention to detail crucial for me.
When I'm not taking photos, I enjoy spending time with our children and planning trips abroad.
