It's funny how all it takes is a big smile to make a photo look modern

It means smiling and being goofy will never go out of style.

One of the reasons why old photographs look so serious and stilted is because the pictures took up to a few minutes to take. The picture looks sharp meaning he had to keep that pose for some time, which is honestly really impressive. Assuming it's real, of course. Always believe everything you see on the internet.

The reason they took a long time to take was because people wanted big photos, like the size they would have had if they'd had a family portrait painted. Smaller photos even then only took a second to take.

I only learned it recently, will try and find the post I learnt it from because it had some amazing candid photos from many years ago which are so different to the sort we're used to seeing
