    Found this earlier, had to post it here. Amazing to see the recent pics, done very well. Click link for more pics
    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.

    2010 ONGOING PROJECT...
    by the way, this project made me realise Im a bit obsessive...

    I'd say the editing, to make them look the same, was a real pain in the ass.

    It's a great idea, though. I love the one of his parents.

    They are brilliant.

    My folks have a picture of me and my two brothers as kids (maybe 5, 9 & 11) all wearing yellow polonecks in a studio setting (circa 1980). I thought long and hard about setting up a 2010 version for my mum last year.

    Might revisit the idea having seen those!
