[quote=Anonymous]https://www.mentalfloss.com/article/71705/see-how-yearbook-photos-have-evolved-over-past-century There actually have been studies done on the evolution of yearbook photos. As the 20th century wore on, the classic posed smile we adopt today began to emerge. An algorithm measuring the yearbook photos' shifting degrees of lip curvature supports this, and the trend can also be clearly observed in the composite images. Notably, this was around the same time that Kodak began releasing advertisements of happy people "smiling for the camera." The authors of the paper suggest this had a significant impact on how people chose to pose for their pictures.[/quote]
