Look at them all trying not to smile so big. They totally get it. “A family that plays together stays together, hee hee.” “Shhh. Guys, think ‘Christmas card’, okay?”
This goes for every pic on this site but especially this one… My son would kill me with his bare hands before ever subjecting himself to such family torture. This is why we have no professional family photos. I want to get some for his gradutation but won’t even bother trying. But a family human pyramid would be awesome.
Heh. I really like the force field between Mom-Son#1, and Son#1-Son #2. You’d think that whoever was pointing the camera would say, “Hey, this isn’t going to work.” But then, I’m glad they didn’t.
great photo if it weren’t a fake. look at the position of the mother’s left foot. Just how long is her left leg? Why is her left foot larger than her right, when her right foot is closer? Why are their ankles together when they have their legs wrapped abount that big log. In order to hold their legs like that the limb would have to be razor thin…and THAT would be awkward.
honestly.. why all the hate? look how natural this is for them. the gentle feel of this photo will stay with me forever. and if i ever have children i would certainly consider hiring this photographer to shoot our family portrait!
This is definitely photoshop…. it looks to me like they were all posed on horses originally, the way that their legs are positioned. Funny as hell though, even it it is fake
wow….really? what in the hell made them think that this would be a good picture…it’s preverse and weird, like a family from the hills that marry their brothers and sisters…

Favorite!
Brings all new meaning to family tree. WOAH!
Just the idea that they all thought this would make a cool picture. lol
“I don’t know… something just feels so natural”
I don’t even wanna know whose idea that was…
I sort of want to see the photographic evidence of them getting actually into that position.
The son second from the right is sitting awkwardly erect.
A family that wears highwaters together, stays awkward together….
…or something like that.
i bet the tree felt violated
We’ve got wood.
Nice posture!
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
Dad’s on the bottom, you gotta wonder why? Oh wait never mind.
I wonder if this is hanging up in their living room, nicely framed?
Un-effing-believable

wonkward @ 11:33, it’s because he doesn’t want to accidentally lean into his mother’s breasts…

What instruction do you get from a photographer on a shot like this?!!
Heh. I really like the force field between Mom-Son#1, and Son#1-Son #2. You’d think that whoever was pointing the camera would say, “Hey, this isn’t going to work.” But then, I’m glad they didn’t.
HaHaHa funny pic and definitely awkward in that its a FAKE. Look at the back of moms knee and her ankles
I cant imagine the testicle pain and discomfort. This photographer has to be from Idaho.
Ok, I can see how this photo would inspire an entire website about awkward family photos.
great photo if it weren’t a fake. look at the position of the mother’s left foot. Just how long is her left leg? Why is her left foot larger than her right, when her right foot is closer?

sorry son #2, but you got mom’s small hands. you know what they say about small hands…
The fact that this is fake is kind of even more disturbing, because if it was professional, it leaves one to wonder.
1) what DID they pose on
and
2) WTF were they thinking
log rides are a wholesome family activity
honestly.. why all the hate? look how natural this is for them. the gentle feel of this photo will stay with me forever. and if i ever have children i would certainly consider hiring this photographer to shoot our family portrait!
Man, white people are so weird.
The kid on the right. Wow.
Ride that wood baby!!!!!
*sigh* I guess they all just enjoy having something hard between their legs…..
Mom’s huge smile just says it all!
This is all very Ken Russell. Liszt-o-mania!!!!!!
This is definitely photoshop…. it looks to me like they were all posed on horses originally, the way that their legs are positioned. Funny as hell though, even it it is fake
There was some awkward shifting immediately prior to this photo being taken.
The old folks look like their hips are being cleaved in two.
NO no no no no!! Dear God make it stop!
Mom and Dad and kids, sittin’ in a tree. K-I-S-S-I-N-G.
This family tree has but one branch.
Any photographer who does this genre should be beaten.
Let me guess…this is the Johnson family?
Freud would have had a field day with this one…
The only thing more hilarious than this photo is the idea of them trying to get up in that tree! This seriously tickles me!!
My favorite!!! Looks like something stupid my family would do, all the while thinking how cool it would look.
I just peed my pants! ROFLMAO!
Genius! It’s like they are trying to get posted on this site. If I was a photographer, I would totally do this to people.
Does anyone else get the feeling this photo is part of their family friendly tv show intro?
Gives “Got a Woody” a WHOLE new meaning. Excuse me my theorapist is in DIRE need of my attention after viewing this!?!?!?!
dads just giving the family a ride, like the good old days
This family tree grows strange fruit!
They left them up there when the shoot was over.
wow….really? what in the hell made them think that this would be a good picture…it’s preverse and weird, like a family from the hills that marry their brothers and sisters…
They all look oddly comfortable straddling a big fat piece of wood.
