Taken yesterday in my studio. She is dressed in 1880 style clothes
Pretty model. Looks like Calamity Jane.
Look at some old portraits from the past. Nobody smiled. It was to hard to hold a smile because of slow shutters.

Why does she look angry?
Back in the day I don't think it was proper to smile for the camera.
That could be another reason. I'll check that out today. Thank you.

I talked with some friends today. It was confirmed you did not smile in portraits back then. A person couldn't hold a pose that long.
