Background Energy
“1991 was a wild time to be alive. I may not have had any control over how my mother styled those bangs but I did have control over that sweet, sweet portrait background choice. Also, I’m not sure what’s going on with my teeth.”

Bangin’
“The day before school pictures 1984 my mom was complaining that I wore black too often (all the time). So after making myself beautiful on school picture day I grabbed an old white sweater vest out of her closet and wore it to school. She still was not pleased with my school photos. Wonder why?”

Dress Porn
“My grandmother, bless her heart, made this dress for me by hand. However, she never noticed the fabric she was sewing was covered with pictures of a couple making out. She then rolled my hair and sent me to school…on PICTURE day… I still love you MawMaw.”

Roses
“This is a school photo of my older sister from 1988. The monstrosity upon her head is reflected in her expression. The lasers in the background and applique-roses sweatshirt only add to the epic-ness.

Beltboy
“This is my pre-school picture. I had a fit and would not get my picture taken unless I could put my belt on my head. So my mom did what she had to do.”

Oh, Shirt
“My 14 year old daughter forgot it was school picture day. Normally would have fixed her hair and dressed nice. On this day she wore a Nike shirt that said ‘Just Do It.’ Good thing for us, her hair covered the rest of the shirt and only left a few letters visible.”

Skater Girl
“This was the gem of my high school senior picture portfolio. At the time, the effect was cutting edge. Now I like to tell my kids that I had to skate really fast to look that dumb.”
