Huffington Post: "Stunning photos from a 2008 project by artist Charlie White pair teen girls with their transgender adult female doppelgängers.
Titled the "Teen and Transgender Comparative Study," White's project is a "a correlation of two stages of transformation, pairing teen girls with like adult male-to-female" transgender women.
