O Brother, Where Art Thou?

After experimenting with different poses for these four siblings, the photographer finally nailed it.

Wow. This should be attached to Webster’s Dictionary for the meaning of awkwardness!
The amusing moment
i like the pushed up yet still buttoned sleeves on the boy on the left
trust me, that’s not the right pose…so wrong
This is ridiculous! Why would they pose like that? It’s not like they are at prom.
PROM!!!!!!
Can anyone say “Heimlich”? They look like they are practicing on choking victims for a Boy Scout badge.
HaHa thats a good reply!!!
Exactly what I was thinking. LOL
What gets me is that a photographer would set this pose up. This is a crime against studio portraiture and those young men.
Silly me, I thought this was a photo taken at the 8th grade dance.
exactly!
It looks to me like the girls are actually just random people pulled in by the brothers Casanova.
Hm… I thought this was an 8th grade “prom” picture. Are we sure they’re siblings?
Er…those women are not in 8th grade.
What’s really disturbing is that they all seem so…COMFORTABLE with this!
I actually think these little guys won some type of bet and they are showing off to their friends.
I’m guessing this was a Bar Mitzvah pic and these two fellas’ are best friends.
Reminds me of my nephew’s bar mitzvah.
I agree with lucy – it’s 8th grad prom. I just can’t bring myself to believe that someone would have siblings pose like that.
Oh my.. This is a bit too much! To answer the 8th grade prom question… I’d think the same thing if they didn’t all look exactly alike. This picture is flippin’ priceless! Was the photographer fired?
That’s just not right. Why would they pose them that way?
While you can tell what the photographer was going for here, what he ended up with is Just Wrong…lmao
It’s those crazy Heimlich kids!
Lifetouch meets Sears. Brilliant shot!
If it were an 8th grade prom picture, they would have been posed differently, not to mention dressed differently. Either way, it doesn’t get more awkward than this, related or not.
This has to be a cruise picture or something. I’ve been on two cruises and there could be a website just for awkward family pictures from cruises. YIKES. This made me cringe!
he’s gonna pork her russ
oink oink
Their names were McLovin…
that would be funny
hahahahaha
This is so awkward, I actually had to look away. When you feel uncomfortable looking at the picture, that’s when you know this site did a good job.
My thoughts exactly. I cringed for sure.
“lifetouch meats sears”, lmao I used to work at lifetouch, so TRUE!!!!!!
Haha – the kid on the left looks like a tiny McLovin.
The boy on the left….he will fly like hell with those wings, I mean, ears.
It’s the sequel to “Weird Science”, only the programming was worse and they made two girls instead of one.
lol
it’s all about the coordinating outfits….nobody will notice the pose….lmfao
To shoot down prom theory … Three on the right are clearly siblings – the noses are almost identical. Can’t tell but the one on the far left may be as well …
I think this was just a cute idea gone horribly, horribly wrong.
McLovin…the early years
Timmy & Johnathan, seriously!!!…we are trying to take a picture here!
Did an adult accompany these siblings to the studio – you might have the photog. checked out
What’s more disturbing to me is that this got printed? Don’t you typically take a bunch of pictures, they print a test sheet, and you pick the ones you like best to print. I hope this is just a test print.
God I hope this isn’t sitting in a frame in someone’s living room.
Freak Sandwich
Yes!!
Who thought this was a good idea? Those boys are surely still in therapy.
I hope to GOD the photographer didn’t put this up in his shop display… sheesh!
Wow. That’s so awkward I can’t even look directly at it for more than a second. All I can do is laugh.
Its the Jonas Brothers dates last year.
hey now that was uncalled for.\
jk
ahahahahha.
wow.
i love the JONAS BROTHERS! -definitly have better taste then that.
the jonas brothers had to pay for those girls to stand by them
I just love the horrified look on the girl on the left. You know, just ignore the fake smile.
Brother, where art thou hands?
“i love the jonas brothers” and “taste” dont belong in the same sentence
sooooooooo true
This should be one of those posters that have a characteristic or value in bold letters at the bottom. It could say “CONFIDENCE…Is asking a junior to the 8th grade dance”
OO that would be awesome.Can I take that and make something out of it?
that would be such a greta poster XD
My eyes! Somebody turn it off!
So I’m a professional photographer. Really. That’s why I love this site. During a very dark time of my life I worked at the Studio at Target doing the “arrange WAY too many people in a tiny studio just 3-4 inches in front of the backdrop” style family portraits. I hated it, but I’m proud to say that I never stooped to this level.
I did do the family dogpile shot, but there really are not many options when 8 people show up for a photo in a studio that’s 4′x4′.
The girl on the right is cute!
ridiculossssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss
yessssssssssss
I know everyone hears this from someone at least once a week on the internet but I seriously know that girl to the far left. She was a friend of mine who just graduated at our high school. Extraordinarily smart girl as well. I’m debating on sending her this link on Facebook to see if she knows (I’m sure that will be an awkward conversation of the ages).
Lucky boys!!!!
