Welcome back.

February 19, 2011

I stumbled upon this site the other day and then my friend sent it to me so I thought I would share it with you guys because it’s such a cool idea. Irina Werning is a photographer from Buenos Aires. She’s started a photographic project whereby she gets people to fish out old pictures of themselves when they were young and then gets them to reenact the exact moment again now. So, as she puts it – together with her camera, she’s inviting people to go back to their future.

The results are so super cool, her grading is spot on and I can’t believe how much effort some people have gone to, some of them even look like they are wearing the exact exact same outfit! How?! (check out the black and white one)

Maybe we should attempt one of these. Hmmm….ok this is the only photo I could find of myself on my computer. All I need now is a rosette, some white shorts, a white t-shirt, some nice white ‘open all over’ sandals, crazy hair and those 3 kids standing next to me. I mean how hard can that be to arrange?!

Ok, I think I may look for another picture.

I should get my parents to reenact this one. That’s them on their honeymoon in 1975. So rad!
