A relative recently posted a picture on her Wall in Facebook, and it stirred a lot of memories–and not just because one person in the photograph died three years back.
More notable than the picture surriving in storage, and the tremendous changes everyone in the picture experienced over the years, were the response from everyone after the shot circulated amongst friends and family. Of the six living people in the photograph, five commented multiple times.
Now there are plans to take the photograph again this summer, and strike similar poses, but hopefully with a collective awareness of current fashion trends and hairstyles.
When we do reshoot this summer, I’ll post the photos side by side.
Until then, behold the over the calf socks, big hair and tragic footwear:
Honestly, I think you should keep the hairstyles and the socks for the photo. LoL. That would definitely be awesome for old-times sake.
I would love to do a one to one reproduction! Unfortunately genetics and stress ruled a crew cut my best option. But I still have the socks. Never you mind.
I vote for the same clothes.
I did a similar thing recently, recreating an old school photo on one of the rare occasions that my brothers and I were all together – it was the best fun we’d had in years. I look forward to seeing your reshoot.
See, I was hoping someone would talk me out of reliving this experience. Now I pretty much have to do it.
