About

I’m Ton Gomes, a photographer and artist based in New York City.

I began photographing because I grew up with almost no childhood photos, and portraiture became my way of preserving presence. That instinct still guides everything I do. I’m drawn to the human figure, to clean composition, and to images that feel intimate but controlled.

Commercially, I work across fashion, portrait, and brand storytelling. Before photography, I worked inside brands through retail, trend and market research, and commercial management, so I understand how creative decisions connect to product, audience, and performance. I photograph campaigns, lookbooks, ecommerce on model, product still life, and talent portraits, translating a brief into a cohesive visual world, whether in studio or on location across Manhattan and NYC.

My client work includes Nike, Puma, Diesel, Von Dutch, Kipling, and Arezzo, with editorial appearances in Bazaar, GQ, and WWD.

Alongside commissioned work, I develop fine art series rooted in memory, identity, and the human figure. Fine art prints are released as limited editions, signed and accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity.
