Ana's models bring her photos from the past, and she tries to recreate the original pose, clothing, and overall style of the photo. The result-a combination of images from the past and present-represents the road of life that each of the models has traveled.

Portraits give an amazing feeling – you seem to be looking at a completely changed face, but at the same time you realize that it is still the same person. It must be true that the eyes always remain young!
