The sisters will turn 100 on 24th May and ahead of the momentous occasion, Brazilian photographer Camila Lima offered the pair a free photos.
"I had never met anyone 100 years old, let alone twins. I got in touch with their family and offered the photoshoot as a gift," Lima told GoodHousekeeping.com.
"We were all excited and they put on beautiful dresses, did their hair and came to the capital to take the pictures."
According to Lima, Paulina - who has six children, 19 grandchildren and 16 great-grandchildren - has overcome cancer and two heart attacks in her lifetime.
Meanwhile Maria has five children, 12 grandchildren and seven great-grandchildren.
The pair took part in the fun shoot in the city of Vitória, Brazil, where they're already local celebrities.
