I´m working on a project with PIL in python.
Simply by opening and saving an image makes the output image bigger (in Bytes) than the original, maintaining the same resolution, and i don´t know why...
from PIL import Image
img = Image.open("photo.png")
img.save("photo2.png", "PNG")
Does any one have any idea why this happens? i need them to be exactly the same.

PNG is a compressed lossless format. The original image was probably saved with different compression settings.
Looking at the documentation you could try:
img.save("photo2.png", "PNG", optimize=True)
or
img.save("photo2.png", "PNG", compress_level=9)
By default, compress_level=6 is used.
Note that the optimize option includes setting the compression level to 9. But it also tries to find optimal encoder settings.
