As the photo sessions unfolded, the elderly ladies carefully selected straw hats and apply powder to their cheeks. At the same time, the men playfully groomed their beards and positioned their medals just right. They eagerly embraced the opportunity to showcase their unique charm and radiate their inner joy.

When it was time for their close-ups, these senior citizens dressed in their finest attire. However, it quickly became evident that their clothes were not the focal point of the portraits. Instead, their genuine smiles and the twinkle in their eyes stole the spotlight. The series beautifully captures the belief that a smile is essential to one’s overall appearance, echoing the famous line from the Broadway production “Annie, you never look your best without a smile.”!
