This is one photoshoot where the behind-the-scenes shots are as dramatic as the final pictures. 。
In July, Nike commissioned a photoshoot to show off its VaporMax shoes, and got San Francisco-based photographer Benjamin Von Wong to come up with a dramatic series. 。
So to capture the idea of the air-filled shoes, Wong decided he'd dangle his models off the side of a 30-storey skyscraper in downtown Manila and literally get them to "fly" for the shoot. 。

The photographer detailed the set up in a blog post, saying that the models wore form fitted harnesses clipped by the side, so they could run along the side of the building. 。
One of the models also "rode" a bamboo bicycle in the shoot, which had to be held and coordinated to look convincing. 。One of the models also "rode" a bamboo bicycle in the shoot, which had to be held and coordinated to look convincing. 。
