People rarely smiled for photos in the old days. Part of the reason was because the photographer told them to be very still because longer exposure times were needed. Also don't forget that dental care wasn't what it is today so probably people didn't want to smile. And since photos were only taken by professionals, it was also probably expensive. No on wants to pay a lot of money to have a crappy photo.
