It’s always interesting to see ‘before and after’ pictures. These images below feature couples who decided to commemorate some of their favorite memories in a fun way, by recreating scenes from old photos. The first photos feature these couples either on the day they met, when they first started dating, or on their wedding day. They are then coupled with more current pictures taken to mimic those same moments – some quite a few decades later. But all are recreated to a tee!

In fact, it is the reduction of cinema to a single frame: an unmoving movie, which primes and frustrates the viewer’s wish to know more, and so leads us to read the girl’s despair into a moving narrative.
