# Portrait Photobombing ‘I Dream About Being You' Places Artist in Photos Throughout Tim By TrendHead | Published 2009-01-23 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/uncanny-resemblance-photography-the-i-dream-about-being-you-art-project References: [mikeluribetxeberria](http://www.mikeluribetxeberria.com/index.php?/project/urrezko-garaia-golden-age/) This project by Mikel Uribetxeberria called ‘I Dream About Being You’ plants the photographer’s face in a number of different photos. The collection takes us through a journey of different generations. Uribetxeberria even pulls off the looks of many different women remarkably well. I am quite astounded by these portraits--the fashion, hair and makeup they use is all perfect. They remind me of [old-school portraits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nonnas-cam). In this album, however, you see everyone from a priest to a preppie, a hunk in 1970’s-era soft focus, a geeky young girl, and a sexy lady who could have been your best friend’s mom. Due to their [uncanny resemblance](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cast-swapper)--and the collection’s title--these images seem to get freakier the longer you look at them. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.7/10 - Popularity: 52% | Activity: 22% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Modern](https://www.trendhunter.com/modern) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Portrait Photobombing:** A trend for incorporating the photographer's face into portraits innovates on traditional portraiture and adds a personalized touch. - **Generation-spanning Portraits:** Photographers are experimenting with portraits that span generations, creating a unique twist on traditional family photography. - **Authenticity in Portraiture:** The demand for portraits that express the true personality of the subject is leading to more unconventional and personalized portrait styles. ### Who This Affects Most - **Photography:** Photographers are using new techniques and creative concepts to update traditional portraiture styles. - **Fashion:** The use of fashion and makeup in portrait photography is becoming increasingly important to achieve unique and personalized looks. - **Art:** The integration of a photographer's face into portraits can challenge traditional ideas about what defines portraiture and create new artistic expressions. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Time-Altering Digital Portraits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/time-machine-feature.md) - [AI-Generated Self-Portraits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/persona-ai.md) - [Stylized Portrait Generators](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/face-to-all.md) - [AI-Generated Poetic Photo Series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/emilio-alarcn.md) - [Painting-Immersive Photo Exhibits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/new-ground-exhibition.md) - [AI-Powered Portrait Studio Platforms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/portraius.md) - [Generative AI Historical Art](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/art-selfie-2.md) - [AI-Powered Portrait Studios](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ai-powered-portrait-studio.md) - [AI Portrait Generators](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/portraitia.md)
