Irna Werning has one of the most crafted portrait series I’ve seen. She starts with an original photo from the past — sometimes 20 years old or more

and often either a snapshot or a portrait studio photo.  She then recreates the same pose, clothes and photographic look of the original photo with that same person today. Very campy feel to it and she is flawless in reproducing the effects very different camera styles. Paired together, the photos also achieve something difficult in photography — spanning time.  Though the photos are separated by decades they seem like they are also nearly simultaneous.
