20 Heartwarming Recreated Family Portraits

We all have a stockpile of old family photos hidden away somewhere that remind us of the happy, funny, and downright ridiculous times in our past. Looking at them and reflecting on them is one thing, but to take it to the next level, these people have completely recreated them! From the clothes they wore to the expressions they made, they've put a lot of effort into remaking these silly snaps as best they possibly could.

It's both funny and heartwarming to see this type of thing in action, so we had to compile the best of the best and share them with you right away! Think you got what it takes to recreate some of your best old photos? Share this with your friends and family and see if you can get them on board to join in on this funny little project yourselves! Till then, check out some of the masters at work...
