Who wouldn't want to be a kid again, right? Salad days are long forgotten now, but you can still go back to those times by recreating childhood photos. A while ago, photographer Irina Werning released her Back To The Future photo series, depicting two brothers reenacting their favorite childhood pictures. These series of then and now photos were a huge hit, and so the trend was born.
After Irina has published her images, people figured out that these awkward, yet cheering family photos can be a great gift for your loved ones or a great excuse to act like children again. Careless, joyful and enthusiastic, this funny picture trend is here to stay.
We have collected a list of the most creative and funny childhood photo recreation shots for a taste of nostalgia and to be inspired to create your own series.
