  • Hey Mom! I'm on Tee Vee! In 2009, I told a friend: “Mark my words! Before the age of 30, I’m going to be in a reality TV show!” At the time, I was only being half serious, but in September at 27 years old, I received an email from asian reality show Supermodel Me asking if I would be interested […] vonwong 0 Comments April 6, 2015
  • Starlight Alchemy And A Guide On "How To Shoot Fire" I was recently invited to Singapore to shoot performance troop Starlight Alchemy and help them capture images of some of their latest tools in action. Shooting a volatile substance like fire is all about understanding how fire reacts in different situations and being able to anticipate how they’re going to look on camera.

  • What it's like to be on Digital Rev's Cheap Camera Challenge (with fire) Earlier this month, I had the opportunity to be a part of DigitalRev‘s “Pro Tog, Cheap Camera” challenge on the beaches of Hong Kong with… you guessed it: Fire! Lok from DigitalRev put together an epic video of the challenge, involving a home made flamethrower (coffee creamer, fire starter, funnel and Kai‘s lungs), a model […] vonwong 0 Comments April 27, 2014
  • 4 days, fire, 3 million pounds of sport cars and a mansion in Manchester Back at the end of March last year, I met a man by the name of Barry Van Elder at my Train to Create workshop.

It allows for many creative options such as painting with fire and quite simply looks better when shot against a dark background. I’ve had the chance to work with Andrey DAS to produce one epic photoshoot after another but we had never really attempted to do anything in […] vonwong 0 Comments April 27, 2014
  • The Kitten vs Fire challenge Earlier this month, I did a photoshoot for a friend of mine by the name of Alliebee Henna. The concept behind it was to simply shoot a dramatic portrait of myself breathing fire in the middle of a sand pit. Nothing more. Feedback when I tossed the image up on Facebook was absolutely phenomenal – […] vonwong 0 Comments August 6, 2013
  • Luck, fire and a failed ecosystem While I was in LA on contract with my agent SJ+A and pyrotechnician DAS, I could have simply laid back and enjoyed the hotel and beautiful 23 degree weather by the poolside and play tourist. vonwong 0 Comments May 26, 2013
  • [BTS] Insane Pyrotechnics and Fashion combined! In November of last year on my last Europe tour, master pyrotechnician Andrey DAS and I got together in collaboration with award winning designer Virginie Marcerou to experiment and create some exciting and technically challenge images by combining a variety of pyrotechnics – from smoke, to sparklers, to firebreathing. Since I had just gotten back […] vonwong 0 Comments March 27, 2013
  • Fine art meets fire In early November, I was sent off to Paris by my agent Suzy Johnston + Associates to create a fiery series of images for sculptor and artist Cyril Anguelidis’s “WOM dog”. Of course, when I heard Paris and Fire, my first step was to call up my epic pyrotechnician buddy Andrey DAS and his crew […] vonwong 0 Comments January 30, 2013
