7 vivid portters of foreigners who prove that a smile changes everything
Photographer Jay Weinstein created a wonderful photo project that demonstrates how a smile changes our faces and affects the perception of people around us. Presenting these pictures, Weinstein told how he got such a series. He says that once he just did portraits of people in India. He wanted to photograph one man, but his expression was so gloomy and strict that Jay did not even dare to approach him and continued to take pictures of people around him. Suddenly he heard this unfriendly stranger cheerfully call out to him and ask him to take a picture.
Weinstein says that he asked the Indian to smile and his face instantly changed. “His face radiated warmth, and his eyes sparkled with humor. Even his posture softened. Then I realized what my next project would be,” the photographer says.
