This High Schooler Dresses Up as All the Presidents and Documents It
Michael Baxter — January 28, 2014 — Pop Culture
If there was Instagram and easy access to portable cameras back in the day, you can bet there would be president selfies. In light of the lack of these photos, this high school student decided to take it upon himself to do the pictures himself.
There have been a lot of presidents of the United States, 43 to be exact. That's a lot of selfies to take and a lot of poses to re-create, but high schooler Chaz Rorick did it. The photos are very close in terms of poses and in terms of facial expression. Chaz can't necessarily do what many of the presidents could do, like grow entire bushes of facial hair, but he makes use of some props.
These president selfies show the power of modern photography and the progress of the selfie revolution.
