I love old photos. I admit being a nosey photographer. As soon as I step into someone else’s house, I start sniffing for them. Most of us are fascinated by their retro look but to me, it’s imagining how people would feel and look like if they were to reenact them today... A few months ago, I decided to actually do this. So, with my camera, I started inviting people to go back to their future.

Basically, this guy takes 15-40 year old photos of people and recreates them to a T with the same people in the present day.

Basically, I am shocked. Awesome. Check it out.

This was interesting, must have been difficult to set up.

Wow, that's pretty crazy. I'm surprised some of the places these shots were taken still hadn't changed, e.g., the one of his parents outside.

Pretty incredible!

Makes my 365 project seem a bit lame!

That was cool.

Not sure what to think about the accordian player in Argentina. That was a bit different, to put it lightly.


Thank you. bw!

I just went through the images and had no problem and was impressed with the photographers eye for detail that made all of them so connected.

I love it. I think this would be great to go back and do your own old family photos. I love this idea!
