Montreal based photographer Benjamin Von Wong left the studio and took to the coast of Bali to take these stunning and haunting images of models over 25m underwater in a sunken shipwreck. In his images, the models transform from simple free divers to enchanting mermaids wearing dresses by Bali-based designer Ali Charisma. But it wasn’t all glamorous – some of the models were roped to the shipwreck and had to breath 3-4 minutes at a time.  These images are unlike anything you’ve seen before!
