Behind the Scenes: Capturing Epic Pre-Wedding Photos with Sails Chong

Sails Chong of Studio NEXT-IMAGE is one of the most creative wedding and couple photographers in the world. His compositions are gorgeous and he seems to be constantly pushing the envelope. Here’s a quick peek at two of his latest pre-wedding shoots… explosions included.

Of course, Chong’s style won’t be everybody’s cup of tea, but his behind the scenes videos and the photographs he produces almost always make a splash online… and it’s easy to see why. To see more of his work, head over to Studio NEXT-IMAGE by clicking here or giving him a follow on Facebook.
