Tongoslinga is an absolutly amazing photographer to work for. Not only is he an incredibly talented and creative photographer but he is also an incredibly friendly and lovely person to be around.

I had my second shoot with him during my tour to Holland and he was so much fun to work for again just as he was last time we worked together. He had some really creative ideas yet again and overall I think the shoot went really well :)

I would highly recommend working with him if you get the chance :)

Had the opportunity to shoot alongside Ton during Elle Beth's event that she ran in Portugal. Ton is a great guy to talk to about everything photography and more. It was great to be able to see him work with Elle during the two days and see the two different style we both shot with Elle during the course of the event.

I had a first fantastic shoot with this absolute gent!

We had a great day! Full of good conversation and not just filling the air, really interesting subjects and detailed. Loved it!

As far as photography skills and lighting goes, this guy knows what he is doing! We honestly just shot quality that day, I love the pictures! We worked through a number of different sets and lighting. Ton makes you feel so at ease and comfortable that I got to explore a few more different poses I haven't tried before....and i'm super happy with the results.

Pre-comms we brilliant, I was picked up and dropped of safely, looked after in the day and felt valued for my opinions in conversations and my effort I was putting in to poses.

Truly left an impression and would happily work with Ton again.

Highly recommend.

Another brilliant shoot with ton.

He is so good to work with, always mega creative, chatty and an interesting person too.

I've worked with ton around maybe 8 times now and each time it gets better and better.

He is so skilled with understanding light which is why all his photos have a beautiful quality about them.

Highly recommended by me and looking forward to next time already.

Ton and I actually worked together for the very first time on my second ever tour of the Netherlands! He was introduced to be by John Herm (whom I had worked with before) as the two often pair up to shoot models over a whole day, that was what we did this time and it worked brilliantly! :D Ton has his studio in the same cool building complex which not only offers perfect independent space for the studio itself, but also free-run of some of the empty areas around the place. And it goes without saying that we made BOUNTIFUL use of the whole place for sure! :D Both utilising controlled flash and natural lighting too.

His visual drive as a photographer is very inspired and admirable: Ton had some pre-pared concepts that he wanted to tackle and had put together fantastic framework (physically) to make it happen in the building of props and sets. He had some good ideas for poses himself but also allowed me to flow with my independent repertoire and bring my own interpretation to the project he was working on. As such, he's a fantastic photographer for both experienced and new models to work with because he can visualise and direct where needed but also allows professional model to do their thing and bounces off of them. Looking back, we tackled an insane variety of styles and ideas: many also were off-the-wall when an opportunity could have just presented itself with the light or something. We had a superb flow going and reviewing the back of the camera confirmed this as one corker of an image appeared after another. :)

Ton is a brilliant photographer with excellent understanding/control of light. He puts very well-thought technical know-how into scenarios that rely on induced lighting and operates the light well to get the image he is after, but then when you are presented with an environment where the light could be changing by the minute (even when the naked eye cannot see) then he throws himself into the challenge and takes it in his stride to seize a lush picture from the point in time. Nailing cool angles and different compositions along the way too! I felt the time we had together was very productive indeed and Ton welcomed a great team-oriented rapport which was great.

He was very respectful and polite, even going to the effort of having bought some nibbles for me to ensure I wasn't going through the day hungry. I have literally no hesitations to recommend Ton very highly to other models and am very glad that we managed to work together as part of my European megatour this summer. I genuinely hope that we get the opportunity to work together again before long - maybe even in 2019! And I'm sure it would be just as awesome a shoot the second time around. :)

Thank you Ton!

I had another great shoot with ton this month!

He was as before very respectful and polite, a pleasure to model for and collaborate with! He’s got a great style of photography incorporating high contrast light streaks coming in from various places within the studio building! I felt safe and enjoyed his company while on shoot

Highly recommended

I have lost count how many shoots I have done with Ton now. Ton is just so much fun to model for. This time we did half our shoot at the beautiful keukenhof spring gardens. It was a magical place full of stunning flowers which created such awesome backdrops for modeling. Very very crowded though so we had to time our shots right as to not get people in the shots but it was totally worth it.

Ton brought all the equipment he needed to the shoot and even bought me an ice cream oh and chocolates :) We then went back to the studio and I did some fun and flexible nude shots (could not do any at the gardens)

Ton really knows what he is doing with his lighting and is happy to let you pose away to your hearts content.

I will be back in Holland soon Ton :) 100% recommended.

Ton and I worked together on my recent trip to Amsterdam and leading up to the shoot, I was so grateful for all of Ton's help with transit plans, picking me up from a station that was good for both of us, quick responses etc etc, very impressed. I was highly recommended Ton by another model and I was not disappointed! Seriously the sweetest guy, chatty, enthusiastic, kind, helpful, great ideas, I couldn't ask for more. He had a great supply of snacks and coffee and tea, a wonderful space to shoot from, so much potential and an interesting mix for me, using studio and an abandoned office building where we had the space to ourselves.

I really hope I get the chance to see Ton again, he was such a joy to meet and we had a lot of great conversation! Photos on the back of the camera also looked AMAZING!

Super shoot, super photographer! Thank you Ton xxx

Yay, second shoot with Ton! I think we work together really well - Ton adapts to the model's inventions, but at the same time doesn't hesitate to add his input regarding, for example, lightning. He is prepared and extremely helpful - Ton provided me with comprehensive details when I have asked about public transport matters. Really professional and easy going photographer, I highly recommend him!

I don’t usually leave references for repeat shoots (seems silly as I’d probably end up writing the same!), but this one was different as we first shot together 2 years ago at my home in London, and this time was in his studio outside of Amsterdam. He kindly picked me up from the station for our shoot, then drove me all the way back to where I was staying in evening.

We shot partly using natural light, in the abandoned office rooms in the building where his studio was based, then once it got darker, we used the studio. He has an easy going disposition, was very thoughtful and supplied snacks and coffee, as well as being a good conversationalist, and professional throughout. I recommend working with him, and look forward to seeing his edits in due course.

I'm nearly losing count of the number of times I have shot with Ton over recent years. We shot again on the last day of my European tour before I flew back home and Ton was as great a host as he has ever been. He very kindly picked me up from my accommodation and even dropped me off at the airport once we were done.

We shot in his studio using natural light to start off with then moving on to some fabulous one light moody setups. Ton is always great with the way he looks after his models, plenty of coffee or tea, lots of yummy healthy snacks and lots of great conversation.

I really loved the images we got on the back of the camera and Im looking forward to seeing which ones he edits.

I hope we get to work with each other again when I'm over in 2018.

I had the pleasure of working with Ton on my recent Holland tour! He booked me for a full day which he shared with another photographer!

Pre-comms were fabulous and I had been looking forward to shooting with Ton for a while!

Ton kindly picked me up from the place I was staying and took me to his studio! He kindly got some food in for me for throughout the day which I really appreciated !

The day was very relaxed and we covered a great deal of genres ! Judging by the back of the camera shots I’d say that I think Ton took some of the best shots of my entire tour! He has a great eye - I loved his composition! Always getting low, and looking for the best angles! He has a great knowledge of light which was very clear when shooting!!! He had some great set-ups during the shoot ! I really loved the different sets! We also did some more experimental sets - shadows and double exposure for example - which required a bit more patience and team-work but together we managed some awesome shots that I’m really proud to be in!

The day was very relaxed and Ton was really good company! A happy chap who I really enjoyed talking with!

Ton also dropped me off at my next shoot which was very helpful ! I really appreciate him going out of his way to make things easier for me!

A lovely day with some fabulous images created! Very much looking forward to seeing the finished results!

Recommended by me! :D

Ton and I had our second shoot at his cool disused office building studio location :) This time we used the office rooms, making good use of the sun through slatted blinds to create some really awesome images. Ton allowed me to pose freely for the most part, but provided great direction when it was required, the style was fine art nude and balletic poses which I really enjoy. He also provided plenty of great coffee and snacks and bless even a box of chocolates to take away with me! He picked me up and returned me to my accommodation, which was very helpful, and all over was a fantastic guy to shoot with once again. The back of cam images are super and I am looking forward very much to seeing edits. Recommended to other models by me for sure :) Thanks Ton, I hope we can shoot together again!

Yesterday I had a lovely shoot with Ton and Jezebelle while on our Holland tour :)

Ton came prepared with a great moodboard that really helped start the shoot, he was so easy to work with and gave great direction when needed but also let us do our thing!

A very talented photographer with an eye for great lighting and shapes, thanks so much and very highly recommended by me! x
