More than 20 years may have passed since pictures of four sisters were snapped in various places by their father but now one of the siblings, photographer Wilma Hurskainen, has decided to gather them up once more to recreate a moment in history.
From the location down to the girls outfits, the photographer tried to be as accurate as possible when reconstructing these images. Though they may be much older in the shots, they still manage to recreate that childhood innocence and feelings of happiness that can only be felt when you are younger.
The photographer Wilma Hurskainen decided to pursue this endeavor because of her ongoing interest in a photographs ability to cross time and the almost melancholy feeling about looking back at old photographs and seeing how people and things have altered over time.
