Irina Werning's Photography

I think Irina Werning's idea to recreate old childhood photographs is great! I personally love going through old pictures of myself and my family so the concept is really interesting. It's impressive that she is able to make the images so similar in terms of the backgrounds and outfits that each person wears. I've heard about other people doing this with family photos but I didn't know that there was a photographer out there dedicated to this type of work. It's cool to see how people change overtime while keeping the background constant. I really like the black and white photo of the girl looking over to the side. It's simple but shows how even though she has turned into a woman, some of her features have stayed the same. She has the same expression. I think our morph assignment is going to have really interesting results. We are using the same idea but instead of one photo next to another, we're morphing them. I can't wait to see how it works out.
