Francois Brunelle – Lookalike Project

Francois_Brunelle_Lookalikes

Photographer Francois Brunelle is a Canadian photographer that shoots photos of two people who are not related, however they look alike. Several years ago, someone mentioned to Francois that he looked like Rowan Atkinson, most known as “Mr. Bean”. This intrigued Mr. Brunelle and he started the “I’m not a look-alike project”. Once he has acquired about 200 photos, he plans to publish them in a book. If you look at the examples included here, these strangers could easily pass as siblings. If you just showed me the pictures, I would immediately think they were twins.  The photos have no editing other than touch up for distractions like dust etc.

Francois is interviewed here by CBCTelevision.

 

It is just fascinating to see these pictures of unrelated people that look alike.

    I love Francois Brunelle’s Lookalike Project, but his website doesn’t work.
